Joining fellow Barclays Premier League sides Everton and Hull in partnering with the former England kit makers, Umbro in a new five-year multi-million pound deal.

The British brand will produce the east London club’s kits from next season, providing strips for all of its teams as well as training products and leisure wear.

West Ham previously wore Umbro kits in the 1960s and between 2007 and 2010, before the club switched to Macron and then to their current supplier Adidas.

Financial terms of the new Umbro agreement have not been released but it is rumoured to be worth around twice as much as the adidas deal.
