Manchester United agree long term extension with kit provider Adidas

Manchester United have confirmed a new long term extension to their existing kit deal with sportswear giants Adidas.

The deal is reportedly worth at least £900m and will run until 2035, which will mark twenty years since the club and brand reunited in 2015.
United switched back to Adidas after a long relationship with American brand Nike. 
Manchester United Chief Executive Officer, Richard Arnold said: 
 
“The relationship between Manchester United and adidas is one of the most iconic in world sport, forged through a shared commitment to style, flair and, most importantly, high performance.  
 
“With its roots in the 1980s, our partnership has been reinvented over the past decade with some of the most innovative designs and technology in sportswear. We are now looking forward to refreshing this powerful partnership again through the remainder of this decade and into the 2030s.”

Chief Executive Officer at adidas, Bjorn Gulden, said: 
 
“We are extremely proud to announce the extension of the contract with Manchester United. adidas and Manchester United are two of the most important brands in international football and it is very natural for us to continue our cooperation. We will combine tradition and innovation to please both the players and the fans.

“We look forward to continuing our partnership with one of the most iconic clubs in football!”
