Manchester United 'under pressure to complete £600m kit deal'

Manchester United are reportedly being put under pressure to complete a lucrative kit deal before the World Cup in Brazil.

The North-West outfit are said to have held talks with manufacturers Adidas, Warrior and Puma after a six-month exclusivity period with current partners Nike ended at the beginning of the season.

According to The Telegraph, United, who have to give Nike an opportunity to match any deal offered, have just over one month to decide on which brand to team up with due to production and design deadlines.

The Red Devils, whose contract with Nike expires in June 2015 following a 13-year partnership, are expected to secure a new deal worth a record £600m.
