Jul 1, 2019, by Chris
Together with the announcement of their partnership with Umbro, Burnley revealed their new 19-20 home kit. Umbro are replacing Puma. It also has a new sponsor, LoveBet, in place of previous Burnley sponsor LaBa 360.
Previously, there had been strong rumours that Burnley's kits will be manufactured by Umbro from next season. Now it was officially announced that Umbro will supply all bespoke kit, replica and training wear for an initial three-year period.
Sam Lucas, Head of Sports Sponsorship at Umbro UK, said: “We’re delighted that Burnley will be wearing the famous double diamond again from the start of next season. They are a club with history and tradition while looking to build their future, which goes hand-in-hand with our brand values - and we hope that we can again create more memories, on and off the field."
