Despite not being in great form on the field, Real Madrid are close to receiving a powerful economic boost for the future from kit manufacturer Adidas.
The German sportswear giants are set to extend their contract with 'Los Blancos' for the next ten years, with Madrid receiving a whopping 1.1 billion euros, a stratospheric amount, as indicated by 'Marca'.
In addition, the source says it will be the largest sponsorship agreement with a club in history. If the agreement is officially confirmed, Madrid would surpass both Manchester United and Barcelona.
The new contract that the 'merengue' side would sign with the sports brand would double the annual income of both the 'Red Devils' (€85 million) and 'Blaugrana' (€83 million).
This would turn the Real Madrid shirt into the most expensive kit in sport, as it would go from receiving €52 million annually to a final figure of €150 million.
As if that wasn't enough, 'RadioEstadio' revealed that the operators were already working to prepare the presidential box for the presentation of the new agreement between Adidas and Real Madrid.
