Spanish sportswear brand KELME and English Premier League team Watford FC have announced a partnership agreement under which the brand will outfit the North London club for the next four seasons . Thus, the Premier League team becomes the first English club to wear KELME.
Starting with the 2020/2021 season, club kits and training wear will be produced for both the men's and women's teams, as well as for all levels of the football academy.
All Hornets kits will be available at KELME's more than 450 stores across China and Spain, as well as at the club's various retail outlets.
Watford FC has a history spanning almost 140 years, and has been among the top names in the English Premier League. A team that stands out for its strong future prospects and is undoubtedly one of the best options to introduce KELME to the Premier League for the first time in its history.
From the club, President and CEO Scott Duxbury said: “ We are delighted to partner with Kelme and to be the first British club to wear their kits. They are well-known throughout Europe, South America and Asia, and we are excited that our players and fans can benefit from the quality and distinction of their products.”
Carlos García Cobaleda , Global Marketing and Sponsorship Director at KELME, said: “There could be no better way to achieve our first milestone in the world-renowned Premier League than by partnering with the Hornets. We will build on our global capabilities to ensure this historic team and their loyal fans benefit from our outstanding official full-look club collection and huge exposure thanks to our significant presence in Asia, where Watford FC will be one of our key assets .”
This means the Hornets will wear KELME kits until the 2025 season . Unforgettable moments are sure to follow, and the history of this important English club will continue to be written, in this case, with KELME's presence on their kits.
