The agreement will seen the Premier League champions-elect return to wearing adidas for the first time since 2012, after a stint with Nike.

They have been sponsored by the German giants in previous trophy-laden eras including an 11-year stint from 1985 to 1996.

Fans will be delighted with the news since some of the Reds’ most iconic shirts have been made by adidas over the years.

The deal is expected to earn Liverpool a healthy sum which will be further incentivised by on-field performances.
