Famed Saudi Pro side Al Nassr are set to sign a new kit deal with Adidas for the 2024/25 season. That’s according to kit aficionado @ShirtsBb on Twitter.
The Riyadh-based club, led by global superstar Cristiano Ronaldo, currently wears Nike kits. But the club is upset by Nike’s inability to offer more selling outlets for shirts and accessories to fans worldwide. The terms of the deal only stipulated one year.
Al Nassr is one of the most successful teams in Saudi Arabia, with 27 trophies. Portuguese legend Ronaldo helped steer the club toward its latest silverware in the Champions Cup final.
Twitter user JacksonI concepted an early version of the kit, using the present Nike one as the template.

Yesterday, it was also announced that Al Nassr and MLS side Inter Miami will play each other in the Riyadh Season Cup in February next year. The game, dubbed “One Last Dance” pits together superstars Lionel Messi and Ronaldo.
Last July, Ronaldo said that the Saudi Pro League “is better” than the MLS. The attacker, who also criticized Messi for receiving his 8th record-setting Ballon d’Or, will get his chance to prove the league’s superiority on the pitch.
