FFIRI President Ali Kafashian told reports on Saturday that uhlsport will supply match kit and possibly training equipment to Iran’s men’s national football team, Iran national U-23 football team, also known as Iran Olympic Team, and other Iranian outfits for a period of three years.
The report comes as the FFIRI was previously considering the Spanish sports clothing manufacturer Joma as its official technical sponsor between March 2016 and mid-July 2018, when the 2018 FIFA World Cup scheduled to take place in Russia concludes.
Joma, which produces footwear and clothing for football, futsal, basketball, volleyball, running, tennis, padel and fitness, is currently providing Iran’s Isfahan-based Foolad Mobarakeh Sepahan soccer club with match kit and related equipment.
Uhlsport GmbH is currently supplying Iran’s Esteghlal Khuzestan, Foolad Khuzestan, Malavan Bandar Anzali, Naft Tehran, Rah Ahan, Foolad Mobarakeh Sepahan and Tractor Sazi Tabriz soccer clubs with match kit and other necessary gear.
