Manchester United 'forced to wear Nike kit in pre-season despite Adidas deal'

Manchester United will reportedly be forced to wear their Nike kit during a pre-season tour of the US this summer, despite their £750m deal with Adidas.

The Manchester United squad will reportedly be forced to wear their Nike kit during a pre-season tour of the United States, despite having secured a world-record deal with Adidas.

The Premier League giants have a 10-year £750m deal with global sports brand Adidas, which will come into effect from the beginning of August.

However, according to the Daily Mail, United will have to continue honouring their Nike agreement until then. Consequently, the team will wear Nike gear during the club's 12-day trip to the US in July.

The report claims that there is currently no buy-out agreement in place to allow the team to unveil their new Adidas kit during the tour this summer.
