Everton Drop Umbro And Agree With Hummel For New Season Kits

Everton has been using Umbro kit manufacturers since 2014.With the contract terminated this season they have exercised the option to change manufacturer that saw them make a new deal with the Danish sportswear company Hummel worth in the region of £9m per season. In February Everton announced they would end their sponsorship agreement with the Kenyan betting firm SportPesa two years early. Carlo Ancelotti’s players will continue to wear SportPesa-sponsored Umbro kits for the duration of the 2019-20 campaign and change to Hummel, and a new sponsor, at the start of next season. Hummel will kit out the men’s, women’s and academy squads as well as Everton in the Community staff.

Despite securing a club-record kit deal, Everton’s income from Hummel is dwarfed by the Premier League’s biggest names. Manchester United, for example, earn £75m a year from their kit deal with Adidas and Liverpool’s new deal with Nike is estimated to be worth around £80m a year
