Fluminense Eager to End Umbro Partnership as Puma Negotiations Begin
According to @jornadakto1902 via @FluResenha, the club is likely not to renew its contract with Umbro. Instead, the Rio de Janeiro-based side is in early-stage negotiations with German sportswear brand Puma to become its new technical sponsor.
The iconic tricolor (green, white, and maroon) designs have been a constant throughout Fluminense's kit history, with Umbro generally respecting the club's traditional aesthetic while introducing modern elements.
