Santos to Partner with Adidas for Kits Starting 2028 Season

Santos FC have confirmed a major new partnership with Adidas, ending their current deal with Umbro that runs through 2027. This marks the club's return to Adidas as their official kit provider beginning in the 2028 season.

New Deal Marks Third Adidas Partnership

The German sportswear brand officially announced the agreement on Thursday evening, stating that this will be the third period Adidas supplies kits for the Vila Belmiro club. The move aims to boost Santos' commercial income and widen its international retail presence.

Expanding Adidas' Presence in Brazilian Football

Adding Santos enhances Adidas' involvement in Brazil's top division, joining other clubs like Flamengo, Cruzeiro, and Internacional in their portfolio. The deal covers matchday kits along with lifestyle and training apparel.
