Germany: why the change of equipment supplier for the national team created a political "crisis". After 70 years of partnership with Adidas, the German Football Association has signed a contract with Nike for the period 2027-2034.
A decision that was quickly moved by the political sphere, regretting that a historic German brand was abandoned for a giant American equipment manufacturer. These turmoil could in any case indirectly benefit the French Federation, which this week launched its call for tenders for a future equipment manufacturer... And can hope that the increased animosity between Adidas and Nike will inflate prices.
