Football Association, Nike extend England kit deal until 2030

The Football Association announces that Nike will continue to sponsor England's football kit until 2030 in a deal said to be the most lucrative in the FA's history.

The Football Association has announced that Nike will continue to sponsor England's football kit until 2030.

English football's governing body confirmed on Tuesday that the American sportswear manufacturer has agreed the terms of a 12-year extension to its existing deal.

According to Sky Sports News, it is the most lucrative England kit sponsorship deal in the FA's history, said to be valued in the region of £400m.

FA group commercial and marketing director, Mark Bullingham, said in a statement: "We are delighted to be continuing our partnership with Nike until 2030. It was always important for us to secure such a long-term commitment to allow both parties to build an even stronger partnership together.

"With The FA striving to be a world-class organisation, it's vital for us to partner with innovative global leaders such as Nike and look to the future together.

"As well as supplying all of our England teams with state-of-the-art apparel, Nike is a huge supporter of our technical division's work and of grassroots football across the country. It's fantastic that this support will not only continue but increase from now until 2030."

Nike replaced Umbro as England's kit sponsor in 2013, ending an association dating back to the 1950s.
