Travis King, chief executive of Nexen Tire, said: “Nexen Tire has been actively supporting Manchester City throughout the years, accompanying the team in their successive wins in the Premier League. We are determined to create bigger synergy with the club, setting our eyes on the continued collaborative success with Manchester City.”
