German sportswear manufacturer Puma announced Wednesday it has secured a long-term kit deal with the Portuguese Football Federation, ending Nike’s 26-year partnership with the national team.
The agreement, set to begin in 2025, will see Puma outfit all Portuguese soccer teams, including men’s, women’s, youth, futsal, beach football, and E-Sports squads. The company plans to unveil its new product line early next year.
The deal marks the end of Nike’s relationship with Portuguese football, which began in 1997.
