Birmingham City and Umbro have rekindled their relationship from past years as the two sign a three-year sponsorship deal that will last until the 2009-2010 season.

 Umbro’s contract as the club’s exclusive manufacturer of all playing and training supplies harkens back to the 1970s and 1980s, when a similar contract existed between the two.

Birmingham City will be replacing their former supplier, Diadora, to join the ranks of Umbro’s high profile portfolio clubs. This portfolio includes other top league players such as England, Everton, Rangers, West Ham, West Bromwich Albion, Celta Vigo, Lyon, FC Dinamo, Malaga, and CSKA Moscow.  

The Dublin-based Bohemians have signed a new kit deal with Diadora, the Italian sportswear company.

The six figure deal should certainly give the club a boost over the three-year contract. The move will see the Bohemians return to their traditional red and black stripes for the home kit, although a slightly less traditional design will be used for the away kit. 

Leeds United Ladies FC have announced that leading kit manufacturers Umbro will be supplying the playing kit for the first team in the FA Women’s Premier League Cup Final, as well as for the remainder of the season

Chairperson, Melanie Vauvelle said "I am delighted with the sponsorship and we are proud to be associated with a leading football brand."
