Will adidas set to leave Ac Milan at the end of the season? According to La Gazzetta della Sport the german brand will exit the contract at end of this season

Today the two main Italian sports newspaper opened the day with a big news: adidas will end their sponsorship of Ac Milan in June, after 20 years. For the moment none from Milan or adidas have officially replied to these rumors.

New scenarios

The Rossoneri will now have to go forward with a new kit manufacturer, according to Gazzetta the two more likely contenders are the growing brands such as New Balance or Under Armour will take over the contract. It actually seems difficult that Under Armour will step into an unknown market, like the Italian one. It would be a big beat for the American manufacturer that is struggling home in the sneaker market. The new Balance hypothesis seems more likely, the American brand is doing amazing kits this season (Liverpool, Benfica, Celtic). All the newspapers are rejecting the Nike possibility, due to the relationship between the Swoosh and Inter. But it's not so impossible as they may think: Milan's clubs have already joined forces and a branded soccer city could be an intriguing chance.
