Nike predict 'bright future' with Liverpool after kit deal officially unveiled

Liverpool have officially announced their kit deal with Nike , which will see the corporation take over from current kit suppliers New Balance.

The Reds welcomed Nike into the 'Liverpool family' in a statement this morning, with managing director Billy Hogan adding that they anticipate the partnership will be 'incredible' as they seek to further expand their off-the-field success.

Bert Hoyt, VP, GM Nike EMEA, said: “Liverpool Football Club has such a proud heritage and strong identity.

"The partnership with Liverpool FC underscores our leadership in global football and with the club’s passionate worldwide fanbase and strong legacy of success, they have a very bright future ahead.

“We look forward to partnering with them to serve players and supporters with Nike innovation and design.”

Liverpool's first Nike kit will be worn during the 2020/21 season, with the kit deal to come into effect from June 1 this year onwards.

The club say the deal is a 'multi-year partnership' that will see the American brand manufacture the Reds' playing, training and travel wear.
