  • Press Release - for Immediate Release
    PRESS RELEASE - FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Wayne Rooney becomes a "FIFA for SOS Children's Villages" ambassador Wayne Rooney, PFA Young Player of the Year 2005 and top England/Manchester United striker, became a "FIFA for SOS Children's Villages" ambassador in October 2005. Rooney also underlined his support for the official charity campaign of the 2006 FIFA World Cup™, "6 villages for 2006". Wayne Rooney said; "I was made up when FIFA and SOS Children’s Villages asked me if I would get involved. The work they do is for kids who have suffered and have no families to help them. I know how much it means to have a family that supports you, so I am delighted I can give my support to these kids.” In February 2003 Wayne Rooney became the youngest footballer to play for England. In September 2004 he became the world's most expensive teenager when he signed for Manchester United, and his reputation as one of the world's most exciting young players was further enhanced by his hugely impressive performances for England at Euro 2004 in Portugal. Through his ambassadorial role, Wayne is hoping to use his internationally growing reputation to further help some of the most disadvantaged children in the world by helping FIFA and SOS Children's Villages to provide family homes where they can grow up with brothers, sisters and an education. FIFA welcomes the appointment of Wayne Rooney as "FIFA for SOS Children’s Villages" ambassador for England. FIFA President Joseph S. Blatter said of the England player’s appointment: “Rooney is one of the most exciting young talents of our days and it is encouraging to see that he is committing himself to support the cause of some of the most vulnerable and needy children around the world.” Under the "6 villages for 2006" campaign, donations are being collected from football fans worldwide for the construction of six new SOS Children's Villages.

  • Richard Mille Congratulates Manchester City Football Club Champions of Barclays Premier League 2013/14
    RICHARD MILLE CONGRATULATES MANCHESTER CITY FOOTBALL CLUB CHAMPIONS OF BARCLAYS PREMIER LEAGUE 2013/14 Richard Mille congratulates Manchester City Football Club for their victory of the Barclays Premier League 2013/14. The Club secured UK’s most prestigious football title for the second time in three years; an achievement that reconfirms City as being one of the top teams in the world. Heading in to the last round of games City knew that securing a win against West Ham would guarantee the title. Manager Manuel Pellegrini encouraged his players to finish the season with the same style and attacking flair that had seen them scoring over 100 goals in 37 games. Eventually goals from Samir Nasri and Vincent Kompany proved vital as City got the win that allowed them to regain the Barclay’s Premier League Trophy. Richard Mille has been MCFC’s Official Timing Partner since 2012, another key year for the Club’s history as City won the 2011–12 Barclay’s Premier League bringing home their first league title for 44 years. The partnership benefits from a strong affinity of values both the Club and the Swiss watch brand share: Richard Mille’s drive for passion, belief in excellence, leadership, and generation of talent is reflected in the partnerships the brand established with the world’s leading sports elite, which include Tennis Champion Rafael Nadal, Olympic Medallist Yohan Blake and World Rally Champion Sebastien Loeb. Manchester City and Richard Mille also succeed in working together on charity programmes to the benefit of local communities: Manchester City’s own charity ‘City in the Community’ has recently received a generous donation following the sale of a bespoke timepiece designed by Richard Mille.
