Adidas to Go For FC Barcelona?
Mar 23, 2024, by Chris
- Adidas Interest: Adidas is reportedly considering making a bid to become FC Barcelona's kit manufacturer, potentially replacing Nike.
- Nike Contract: FC Barcelona's current deal with Nike runs until 2028, but there are existing tensions between the two.
- Speculative Information: The information about Adidas's interest is not confirmed and could be a tactic by FC Barcelona to pressure Nike.
After losing Germany to Nike (in 2027), Adidas could hit back and sign a deal with Nike-sponsored FC Barcelona. This is reported by Barcelona shirt collector and insider @memorabilia1899
FC Barcelona Kit Insider: Adidas Could Join Race to Make Barcelona Kit
According to @memorabilia1899, Adidas intends to join the race to become Barcelona's kit maker and is planning to propose a long-term partnership with FC Barcelona.
The current Nike FC Barcelona deal is valid until 2028, but there have been tensions between Nike and the club. 105 million euros go into FC Barcelona's coffers every year, for a total of 1.05 billion euros.
Footy Headlines Opinion - Loose Info, May Be Spread By Club to Increase Pressure on Nike
The short statement by @memorabilia1899 is very loose and could also be spread by the club to increase pressure on Nike. It seems very unlikely that Adidas would be willing to pay more than the 105 million Euro Nike pays Barcelona. Since Nike signed the deal with the Catalan club in 2018, FC Barcelona has been experiencing a downfall.
Do you think it is a real option for Adidas to make Barcelona's kits? Could Nike then go for Real Madrid? Let us know in the comments below.

Liverpool midfielder Dominik Szoboszlai has officially debuted the upcoming Nike Air Max 95 'Liverpool', a special-edition release designed in partnership with JD Sports ahead of their annual 1.10 Day celebration. Deeply rooted in local street culture, where the model has long been nicknamed the '110' after its original UK retail price, the sneaker is packed with bespoke details paying tribute to Merseyside. The shoe features mismatched accents of dockland-inspired 'Rust Factor' orange alongside 'Steam' green referencing the city's Liver Birds, complemented by a reflective brick pattern, a River Mersey map printed across the insole, a custom 'Liverpool' tongue badge, and 'SCOUSE' lettering visible beneath the outsole.
