Umbro Announces Ethiopia Kit Deal
British Double Diamond brand Umbro today announced their next kit deal with an African football national team as they signed a deal with the Ethiopian Football Federation. Umbro replaces Italian brand Errea.

Umbro Signs Four-Year Ethiopia Kit Maker Deal
Umbro becomes the exclusive global technical partner of the Ethiopian national team for the next four years.
The Ethiopian national team has a long football tradition being one of only three teams (along with Egypt and Sudan) to participate in the inaugural Africa Cup of Nations in 1957, later crowned champions in 1962. This rich history coupled with Umbro’s 94 years in the game brings together two brands steeped in tradition which makes for a perfect partnership.
