Cuppy was featured in the ad for the jersey alongside South London rapper Sam Wise and social media personality, Harry Pinero.

An excited Cuppy took to her Twitter page where she shared a video of the ad:

This is coming barely three months after Cuppy ditched her former football club Arsenal. The “Jollof On The Jet” singer’s exit from the club came after the Gunners suffered a 2-1 defeat against Brighton in the Premier League.

She chose to pitch her tent with Manchester United on the condition that Nigerian striker Odion Ighalo scores against Norwich City in the FA Cup.

Meanwhile, Burna Boy also received the new jersey.

However, this has generated diverse reaction from football fans on Twitter.
