Emirates Airline and UAE Team Emirates XRG have announced the extension of their partnership, ensuring that the airline remains a main naming partner for the team. The Emirates logo will continue to be displayed on the team's jerseys and shorts until the end of the 2028 season.

The collaboration between Emirates and UAE Team Emirates XRG began in 2017, marking a significant step for both parties. For Emirates, it was an entry into international cycling, while for UAE Team Emirates XRG, it meant becoming the UAE's first professional cycling team competing in the UCI World Tour. This partnership has helped elevate the UAE's presence in global cycling competitions.

UAE Team Emirates XRG has achieved notable success with over 250 international wins, including three Tour de France titles, a Giro d’Italia victory, and a UCI World Championship gold medal. Riders such as Tadej Pogacar have contributed to these victories. The team concluded its best season yet in 2024 with 81 wins and was ranked number one in the UCI World Tour in both 2023 and 2024.
