Chelsea has signed a new kit deal with US sportswear giants Nike, in an agreement which marks the largest commercial deal in the club's history. Nike will provide the London club's kit from the 2017-18 season, after the Premier League team said in May it was ending its Adidas deal six years early.

The deal is reported to be worth £60m a season for the next 15 years, but the club did not confirm any cash figures.
Chelsea said it was an "incredibly exciting and important deal" for it.

Interesting to see they're ending their Adidas contract 6 years early, wish we could end ours with Nike!

This deal went through in May, it's taken five months for the very expensive lawyers to go through the small print.

It's a long way from the first kit manufacturing deal when Admiral paid dirty Leeds the sum of £4,000 to make their kit in the 70's.

Do they have a ludicrous 30 day before birthday deadline for free shirts or can you call up the day before?
