Reunited Again: FC Midtjylland Joins Puma + Pre-Season Kit Released
FC Midtjylland will partner with Puma on a five-year gear sponsorship starting from the next 2023-24 season. The club goes back to the partner who adorned the Danish team for the first 15 years of the club's existence.
Thus, it is also a farewell to Nike, which has been the club's clothing partner for the past eight years.
The club shared some information regarding the search for a new manufacturer, something we don't see quite as often. They contacted several potential future partners but their preferred option on the list of dream scenarios was Puma. They feel they get a partner who knows the club, has been away, developed, and now comes back stronger knowing how FC Midtjylland functions as a club.
Another important detail is the fact that Puma will give FC Midtjylland a high priority. They are prioritized as number one in the Nordic market, which means that they are also willing to help them with other things that don't just involve delivering one-of-a-kind kits. This applies to everything from marketing, tests and joint development of products to other forms of knowledge sharing.
Finally, the club also stated this is their biggest earnings on a kit deal in the whole history of the club, over the five years of the partnership.
This move has been already teased because one of their satellite/partnership club, CD Mafra, a Portuguese team that plays in the Segunda Liga (2nd tier) signed with Puma as well, thus creating a more cohesive brand representation.

Thierry Henry Honored With Street Name in New York City Ahead of 2026 World Cup
French football legend Thierry Henry has been honored with a street named after him in New York City. Located in the heart of Manhattan at the intersection of 50th Street and 6th Avenue near Rockefeller Center, the street has been temporarily co-named "Thierry Henry Way." The tribute was officially celebrated by his former Major League Soccer club, the New York Red Bulls, who shared images of the newly installed street sign on June 10, 2026.
The dedication is part of a legislative package passed by the New York City Council to prepare for the 2026 FIFA World Cup and celebrate the tournament's arrival in the region. The initiative honors Henry's impact on the growth of soccer in the United States during his successful spell with the Red Bulls. As part of the same World Cup-inspired project, a "Pelé Way" has also been established in Queens to recognize the late Brazilian icon. Both street co-namings will remain in place until November 2026.
Henry, an Arsenal all-time leading goalscorer and World Cup winner, responded to the announcement on Instagram, calling the recognition an honor and referring to New York as his favorite city. The temporary landmark serves as a fitting tribute to his legacy in the MLS and builds anticipation for the upcoming global tournament across North America.
