Liverpool are set to ditch Nike to renew marriage with popular German brand 13 years since parting ways.
Liverpool FC is set to make a significant return to wearing Adidas kits next season, marking the end of a 13-year absence from the brand.
The club has secured a ground-breaking deal with the German sports manufacturer, valued at over £60 million per year, making it the largest kit sponsorship agreement in Liverpool’s history. This move comes as their contract with Nike concludes this summer.
Adidas will now take the reins, following Liverpool’s partnerships with various brands, including Warrior and New Balance.
The club’s previous deal with Nike was initially worth around £30 million annually but often exceeded £50 million due to performance-related bonuses.
