Economics Minister Robert Habeck open to talks with DFB President Bernd Neuendorf. DFB announced on Thursday that the contract with long-term partner Adidas would expire at the end of 2026 after more than 70 years.

From 2027, the German national football teams will no longer be equipped by Adidas, but by Nike. According to a report in the Handelsblatt, Nike's involvement with the DFB is said to cost more than 100 million euros per year.
