Bust up! Nike ended Manchester United relationship over ridiculous demands

It was revealed last season that United had secured a record breaking 10 year kit deal with Adidas worth in the region of 750 million pounds. However, Mail have now revealed that the real reason behind that was Nike rejecting United’ demands.

Initially it was believed that United had parted ways with their long term partner, Nike. But it seems that Nike were the ones calling the shots on this break up as the company were baffled with United’s ridiculous demands.

According to Mail, Woodward presented Nike with a proposal that made it impossible for them to make a profit and the Nike hierarchy rejected the offer and parted ways within an hour.
