Report: Celtic to be awarded ‘Elite’ status by Adidas

Celtic set to be awarded ‘elite’ status by Adidas after agreeing a new deal…

The Scottish Champions signed a record-breaking deal to make the German manufacturers their kit providers in 2020, which has reaped rewards for both parties to the contract.

Now, Footy Headlines are reporting that Celtic are to be included alongside Real Madrid, Bayern Munich, Manchester United and Liverpool as an elite team.

Celtic one of five new ‘elite teams’

Celtic will be included as part of the five new elite teams working with Adidas. The current five elite teams are Real Madrid, Manchester United, Arsenal, Bayern Munich, and Juventus. Adidas will replace Nike as Liverpool’s kit supplier starting from the 2025-26 season, officially making Liverpool a direct Adidas elite team from that point onward. Additionally, four new elite teams will join the ranks in the 2025-26 season: Newcastle United, Aston Villa, Celtic, and AS Roma.

Expect a bumble bee away kit next season

The new deal will be announced in due course but it is expected that Celtic will unveil a bumble bee away kit for next season, wearing the colours for the first time since 2018/19.

Meanwhile, Celtic have had a weekend off after their game was put off as a result of Storm Éowyn. The Celts will be looking to continue their excellent European campaign as they travel to Birmingham during the week to face Aston Villa.
