Celtic and Adidas in record Scottish sport partnership deal

Celtic have announced a five-year kit partnership with German sportswear giant Adidas, reports, www.sportspromedia.com/.

Starting from 1st July 2020, Adidas will serve as Celtic's official kit supplier, covering both the men's and women's teams, in a deal which the club believe to be 'the biggest kit sponsorship ever to be announced across Scottish sport', although financial figures have not been disclosed.

The news confirms an end to the Bhoys' deal with New Balance, signed in 2015 and reportedly worth as much as UK£30 million (US$37.7 million). Before that, the club held a technical deal with Nike.

"This is a hugely significant new partnership for Celtic and our supporters and allows us to look to the future with confidence. To be able to create this fantastic new relationship demonstrates the strength and stability of the club and the power of our enduring story," said Peter Lawwell, Celtic's chief executive.
