This is the most lucrative deal of its kind every in Scottish football and it propels Celtic even further ahead of any domestic challengers while providing additional resources for the club aiming to make a season-on-season impact in the UEFA Champions League, hopefully under the guidance of Brendan Rodgers.

Additional revenues of well over £30m anticipated

With additional revenues of well over £30m anticipated from this deal Celtic is clearly the most successful club in Scotland on and off the park. Indeed if you were to add together the total revenues from the other eleven clubs in the Scottish Premiership – including theRangers – that would add to to a small fraction of the total Celtic are now achieving with a global partner and with a winning formula within the partnership which has been great news for Celtic, adidas and indeed the Celtic support.

Here’s how Celtic broke the news on the official club website this morning….

Celtic Football Club is delighted to announce a landmark extension of our partnership with adidas, continuing our journey together as the club’s official kit supplier…

This new long-term agreement will see adidas continuing to deliver world-class designs for our first team and training wear across both the men’s and women’s squads. They will also continue to create the fan wear that unites our incredible supporters under the iconic green and white.

adidas is the trusted supplier of football’s most prestigious tournaments like the FIFA World Cup, UEFA EURO, and UEFA Champions League. As well as its great association with Celtic, the sports brand partners with some of the world’s other top clubs including Real Madrid, Manchester United, Arsenal, Bayern Munich and Juventus. For Celtic, the extension of this partnership with such a world-renowned brand cements the club’s place as an iconic name in sport globally.

There was a leaked image, which we reported on last night via Lubo98, which appears to show the Celtic shirt for next season. As always there have been mixed opinions on this but what we have learned over the past number of years is that it’s best to wait until you see it on display in the Celtic Superstore before you make your minds up.

Celtic a few months ago also confirmed  that they had signed a significant three-year extension with front-of-shirt sponsors Dafabet, which again is the most lucrative short sponsorship deal in Scottish football.
