Aston Villa have become the latest Premier League club to ditch Rangers’ official retail partners Castore.
The Premier League title challengers have announced that global sportswear giants Adidas will be taking over the club’s retail operations from next season.
The story is being reported by the Telegraph with an official announcement expected imminently.
It comes after player complaints over the Aston Villa home jersey this season, which retained the sweat of the club’s stars and became heavy and uncomfortable on the pitch.
The situation threatened to blow up into a scandal due to the sodden kits sticking to the bodies of female players and now Castore have lost their second Premier League partner within the last four months.
Back in September Premier League outfit Newcastle United cut ties with Castore to announce a new deal with Adidas which will also come in to effect next season.
This also came off the back of some public embarrassment, with Newcastle United accidentally leaking the news in episodes of a fly-on-the-wall docu-series
