Saudi Arabian football association ditches Nike for Adidas

The Saudi Arabian Football Federation (SAFF) has tapped Adidas to replace Nike as the kit supplier for Saudi Arabia’s national soccer teams from 2023 to 2026.

The deal makes Adidas the exclusive supplier of all training and match wear for Saudi Arabia’s men’s, women’s, and youth sides.

Adidas noted that the partnership will aim to increase access to women’s soccer across Saudi Arabia.

Nike’s nine-year relationship with SAFF ends in 2023.
