No More Adidas - First-Ever Puma Palmeiras Kits To Be Released on January 1 2019
After 13 years with Adidas, Brazilian club Palmeiras will switch to Puma in 2019. Now Brazilian website Mantos de Futebol has revealed that the Puma Palmeiras 2019 jerseys will be already released on January 1 2019.
According to Globoesporte.com, the Puma Palmeiras kit deal is worth R$ 22,5 million per year (~ 5 million Euro / year - 10% above what Palmeiras earned from Adidas). R$ 14.5 million will be payed in cash and $ 8 million in "non-cash" (basically, products).
What is also important is that Palmeiras will have exclusivity of the brand in Brazil, being elevated to the level of the biggest teams sponsored by the company (Borussia Dortmund, Milan, Marseille, etc). The club will receive unique kits and marketing actions.

Union Berlin 26-27 Home Kit to Be Released June 8
German newspaper BILD has confirmed our leak of the Adidas 1. FC Union Berlin home kit for the 2026-27 season. The design shifts from the prior red and white striped look to a predominantly red shirt with white accents on the collar and shoulders. An embossed geometric pattern across the front and sleeves directly references the steel roof structure of Stadion An der Alten Försterei as a tribute to the club's historic ground. Sponsors Adidas, Raisin and Kermi remain unchanged from the previous season.
The kit will be officially unveiled on June 8, an earlier date chosen to avoid the FIFA World Cup window running from June 11 to July 19.
Adidas Launches Special 26-27 Dog Kit for Real Madrid
Adidas has released a dedicated kit for dogs linked to Real Madrid. The designs adapt the club's new 2026-2027 home kit.
The collection lets fans outfit their pets to match the team's look. It builds on Adidas's growing range of pet products, including similar jerseys created for select national teams ahead of the 2026 World Cup.
Arsenal Sends Kit Without Adidas Logo & Arsenal Crest
Arsenal shirt collector @NathanPanter_52 has posted images of the 26-27 home shirt bought for £136 that is missing both the Adidas logo and the club crest. The item is an official product - it is very uncommon that something like that happens.
LEAKED: Adidas to Upgrade Leeds United to Local Elite Tier
As spotted by @theadelites, a new customisation option on the Leeds United club shop website allows fans to chosse between replica and authentic kits (added by error too early). This probably means that Adidas has upgraded the club from the B Premium tier to one of the Local A Elite tiers. The move gives fans the option to select authentic kits built around advanced Climacool+ performance technology.
Reports from February indicated similar upgrades for clubs including Ajax and Lyon ahead of the 2026-27 season, but Adidas apparently postponed/scrapped these. Adidas previously already upgraded British teams Celtic, Aston Villa, and Newcastle United.
