Wolverhampton Wanderers Announce Adidas Kit Deal + Ditch Controversial Shirt Sponsor for Premier League Return
Recently promoted Premier League Wolves yesterday night announced a four-year shirt partnership with Adidas. Adidas replaces current shirt marker Puma. The 2018-19 season will mark the first time Wolves and the German sportswear manufacturers have partnered.
Wolves Announce 4-Year Adidas Kit Deal
The Wolverhampton Wanderers Adidas deal will include the both home and away kits, as well as training wear for the English club. Wolves players and representatives visited Adidas headquarters in Stockport earlier this month to learn more about the supplier and take a sneak preview of next season’s kit.
Following the visit, Wolves' Coady said: “Adidas is one of the most elite sporting brands on the globe and with the football club on such a high, and with so much potential, it’s a really strong fit. We’ll be facing some of the world’s toughest opponents next season and facing those challenges in partnership with a top manufacturer will help us feel like we belong.
“The lads and I have sampled the new kits - they look good and feel even better. We’re looking forward to wearing them in such a historic campaign next season.”
Wolves To Have New Shirt Sponsor Next Season
Dalrymple also confirmed the club will have a new front-of-shirt sponsor next season, with The Money Shop’s partnership being mutually concluded a season early. Dalrymple said: “This is a hugely significant partnership for the club as we look to not only take our brand of football into the Premier League, but also take the brand of Wolves to a global audience.
“However, most importantly perhaps for the team, Adidas will provide us with a kit that underpins high performance, and for supporters, provides us with a return to Wolves’ classic old gold. We must also thank Puma for an excellent five seasons as our kit partner, in which time they have produced some of the most successful kits in the club’s history.”
Ashley Swain, Director of Clubs at Adidas UK, said: “After an incredible season and a well-deserved return to the top flight we’re delighted to confirm a long-term partnership with Wolverhampton Wanderers. The club are looking to the future with big ambitions and we feel excited to be a part of their journey.”
The first-ever Adidas Wolverhampton Wanderers home and away kits, as well as training gear, will be revealed later this summer.
