Cork City chairman Pat Lyons said: “We are very pleased at the announcement of this new partnership and we look forward to a successful working relationship with adidas over the next three seasons.
“This is an exciting and positive time for the club on and off the pitch, and this partnership is further evidence of the progress being made.”
adidas provided Cork City’s kit for the first 15 years of the club’s existence — from 1984 to 1999. The club has since had spells with Le Coq Sportif, O’Neill’s, Hummel and Nike, who currently supply City’s kits through Teamwear Ireland.
James Osborne, director of clubs at adidas, said: “We’re looking forward to partnering with Cork City FC from the 2018 season. We’re excited to provide an innovative kit to help the team create on the pitch and fanwear to involve the club’s supporters.”
