In the seasons that have followed, adidas and Manchester United have excited fans around the world with forward-thinking initiatives, iconic designs on the pitch and fan favourite culturewear off of it.
“The new deal increases the focus on the Manchester United women’s team since their re-introduction in 2018, continuing Manchester United and adidas’ commitment to drive the women’s game forward.”
United’s chief executive officer Richard Arnold added: “The relationship between Manchester United and adidas is one of the most iconic in world sport, forged through a shared commitment to style, flair and, most importantly, high performance.”
