Prime Hydration Partners with FC Barcelona
On July 1, Prime Hydration announced its partnership with FC Barcelona as the official hydration sponsor.
This collaboration marks a significant shift, as the club previously had a sponsorship deal with Gatorade, a leading brand in the hydration industry. KSI and Logan Paul shared the news on Instagram, stating, “Out with the old, in with the new. Goodbye Gatorade, Prime is now the new hydration sponsor of FC Barcelona.”
According to FC Barcelona’s official statement, the partnership will involve Prime products being prominently displayed during games in the bench area and in training sessions for all the club’s football teams, including the men’s, women’s, and youth teams. Prime will also have a visible presence in the dressing rooms and the Palau Blaugrana, the club’s basketball arena.
In response to the Prime Hydration and FC Barcelona collaboration, KSI and Logan expressed their excitement, stating, “We could not be more proud and excited to serve as the newest Official Hydration Partner with one of the most iconic teams in any sport, FC Barcelona. Whether it’s a mid-game refuel or post-training recovery, we can’t wait for the FC Barcelona family to level up with Prime.”

Interesting Detail in Prime x FC Barcelona Collab Post
Fans have noticed a crucial feature in the photo that KSI and Logan Paul tweeted of themselves wearing Barcelona jerseys.
In the official photos posted online on Barca’s platforms, the two internet personalities were shown clutching a red and blue Prime bottom while donning Barcelona’s new home uniform for the 2023–24 season. Both shared content to promote the announcement on their social media platforms, but oddly, the Spotify logo appeared to have been photo-shopped away.
One supporter noticed the detail and commented on it on Twitter, saying “No way KSI and Logan photoshopped out the Spotify sponsor on the Barcelona shirt.”
Although it doesn’t seem like KSI has an agreement with any music streaming services, it’s possible that the pair simply don’t want to provide any marketing for free.
