As part of the deal Umbro will also receive branding and hospitality rights.

Paul Nugent, the vice president of global marketing for Umbro, said: “Our partnership with the club is of great importance for Umbro because it marks Umbro’s return to Germany.”

Michael Meeske, the commercial director of 1. FC Nürnberg, said: “This gives us solid planning for the new season and, secondly, the partnership in many ways fits perfectly: a very long tradition, many sporting successes and also a reorientation are key points that unite Umbro and 1. FC Nürnberg.”
