- Current Deal Expiration: Gremio's kit deal with Umbro ends in December 2025.
- Potential New Sponsor: Gremio is considering deals with Nike, Mizuno, and Umbro, with Nike reportedly set to be the next supplier.
- Nike's Brazil Expansion: Nike is actively expanding its presence in the Brasileiro Serie A, looking to add Gremio and other clubs to its portfolio.
Update: Having partnered with Umbro since 2015, Grêmio's current deal with the British supplier expires at the end of this year. The club is said to be in talks with three brands, Nike, Mizuno and Umbro, to become their kit sponsor from 2026, with Mizuno being the frontrunner, according to journalist Diego Torbes, who covers the club's day-to-day operations.
According to Diego Torbes, Mizuno is currently offering the best deal and Umbro is looking to match Mizuno's offer. Nike, meanwhile, will offer a lower price.
Continuing its efforts to expand its market in Brazil, Nike is set to sign a new kit deal with Gremio, according to Gremistas.
Nike to Sign Gremio Kit Deal?
Gremio's current kit deal with Umbro runs until December 2025. To date, there have been no negotiations between the two parties to extend the partnership. Since the beginning of the year, Gremio have received interest from a number of brands, including Nike, to sign a new kit deal with the club.
If an agreement is reached with Nike, the brand will replace Umbro as Grêmio's kit supplier from January 2026, immediately after Umbro's contract expires.
At the moment, Nike only supplies Corinthians in the Brasileiro Serie A, but it seems the brand is looking to expand its activities in the league as it prepares to sign new kit deals with Vasco da Gama and Atlético Mineiro, and possibly Gremio.

The white Unione shirt presents a split look blending green and orange accents with line illustrations of iconic architectural landmarks from both Venice and Vienna, including the Doge's Palace and St. Stephen's Cathedral. Both designs place the lion of Saint Mark and the Austrian eagle crests side by side above the date 15.01.2000.
During the friendly match on the Venetian lagoon, the hosts wore the black kit while Rapid took to the pitch in the white version, with Venezia edging a 1-0 victory. The limited-edition jerseys have been made available to supporters through Venezia's official online store and physical club shops.
Unique Jordan PSG 26-27 Third Goalkeeper Kit Leaked - Inspired by Bernard Lama
