Liverpool fans have been given their first sneak peek at the club’s upcoming 2025/26 home kit — but not through an official launch. Instead, the highly anticipated reveal appeared as a teaser in the latest EA Sports FC video game trailer, offering a subtle glimpse into the Reds’ future look.
Despite the buzz, key details remain under wraps. That’s because Liverpool’s historic new partnership with Adidas doesn’t officially begin until next month. The German sportswear giant will take over kit manufacturing duties from Nike on August 1, 2025, ending a five-year spell with the American brand.
According to reports from the Liverpool ECHO, the Adidas deal is a five-year agreement — marking the first time the Reds have teamed up with the iconic brand since 2012. The agreement is expected to bring both financial and branding benefits, with supporters excited for a fresh era in kit design and global appeal.
For now, however, Liverpool remains contractually bound to Nike, and will therefore continue wearing last season’s kit throughout their pre-season fixtures. That includes friendly matches against Preston North End, AC Milan, and Yokohama F. Marinos, all of which will be played in the strip that sealed their latest Premier League title.
The official unveiling of the Adidas-designed 2025/26 kit is expected shortly after the Nike contract ends, with fans eagerly awaiting a full reveal that matches the hype seen in the gaming teaser.
