President “Barcelona » Joan Laporta said that the Catalan club could end its cooperation with Nike. The American company has worked with Barcelona since 1998.
Spanish media reported that the Catalans were discussing the possibility of signing a contract with Puma and Hummel. Barcelona are waiting for a better offer to arrive.
— There is Nike, and there are Nike competitors who are also interested. It’s the market, and the market tells us that Barcelona is worth more than what we have under our contract with Nike. There is a third way: make the mold yourself. And the three possibilities are available to us. This is a very important decision. We have worked with Nike for 27 years. We organize periodic meetings, they make efforts. I really appreciate. But it’s not enough.
We want to decide what is best for Barcelona, choose the best option, and at the moment all options are on the table in front of us,” Laporta said as quoted by Mundo Deportivo.
The current agreement with Nike runs until the summer of 2028. The American company pays Barcelona 155 million euros per year.
