Under Armour to Become Valencia Kit Supplier From The 2016-17 season
Under Armour x Valencia?
El Desmarque also claims that Valencia marketing director Peter Draper has set a price of 7 million Euro to become Valencia's new kit supplier. Other brands who could become VCF's new jersey makers would be New Balance and Puma, even though Under Armour would be 'clear favorites'.
The Spanish newspaper goes into even more detail and reveals that Under Armour is willing to pay the amount proclaimed by Valencia's marketing director, that Adidas is able to match any offers Valencia receives in order to keep their kit makers after 2017, that Valencia still waits for a reply of the Three Stripes and that it is the intention of the club to solve the issue before the end of the season.
Would Valencia be the next good deal for Under Armour after likely losing Tottenham to Nike (UA are also reported to sign deals with clubs such as Aston Villa, Schalke 04 and Southampton)? Let us know in the comments below.
