Goodbye Adidas? Algeria Launches Official Tender for New Kit Supplier

The Algerian Football Federation (FAF) has officially started the process to find a new sportswear supplier, putting their current partnership with Adidas in serious doubt.

Algeria 2026 Kit Tender

According to an official tender document published in the local press, the FAF has launched a national and international call for brands to take over the national team's kits. Interested manufacturers have been given a strict 10-day window to submit their technical and financial offers before the sealed bids are publicly opened.

This major development follows growing rumors of a rift between Algeria and its current kit maker. The federation was reportedly dissatisfied with the lack of bespoke design effort from the Three Stripes, particularly regarding their latest away kit. The away shirt received no official launch photography featuring the players and was notably ignored by the team during recent friendlies against Panama and Uruguay.

With Nike seemingly unlikely to enter the bidding war, rumors earlier this year heavily linked Puma with a return to the Algerian national team. It remains to be seen if Adidas will submit a new, improved proposal to salvage the relationship or if Algeria will indeed switch to a rival brand.
