Juventus extend Adidas partnership to 2037 in $468 million deal
The current agreement between the two parties, which runs until June 2027, will remain unchanged, the Italian club said.
The new contract will then take effect from the 2027-2028 season and cover all Juventus teams until the end of the 2036-2037 season.
"This renewal fills us with pride and testifies to the synergy between these two great companies," said Maurizio Scanavino, Juventus Chief Executive Officer.
Juventus, famed for their black and white shirts, said the valuation for the new agreement does not include additional royalties for exceeding certain sales volumes or variable components linked to sporting results.
"We're delighted to extend our partnership with the most decorated club in Italian football for a further 10 years," said Sam Handy, General Manager of Adidas Football. Juventus have won the Italian league title more than any other rival club.
Juventus and Adidas joined forces from the 2015/2016 season.
The German sportswear group has a long-term partnership in place with English Premier League club Manchester United which runs until 2035, and also works with other teams including Real Madrid and Bayern Munich.
Juventus said last month that U.S. carmaker Jeep will pay 69 million euros to become its main shirt sponsor until June 2028. REUTERS

World number two Gauff clawed her way back from a set down to defeat Russian Veronika Kudermetova 4–6 7–5 6–2 in a match that stretched over two and a half hours. "It was a tough match today," the French Open champion said. "I thought I did well mentally, especially on the return. I was playing an opponent who served really well. Obviously, I would have liked to serve better, but I'm just happy to get through." Ukrainian Dayana Yastremska stunned American eighth seed Emma Navarro 7–5 6–4 while Russian fourth seed Mirra Andreeva also exited the tournament, losing 7–6(5) 6–4 to American McCartney Kessler. Ninth seed Elena Rybakina from Kazakhstan saw off Romanian Jaqueline Cristian 6–0 7–6(5). On the men's side, Alex Michelsen toppled third seed Lorenzo Musetti 3–6 7–6(4) 6–4 in a gripping third-round contest.

Rights groups urge Nepal to reverse Telegram ban
Sign up now: Get ST's newsletters delivered to your inbox Nepal blocked access to the app on July 18, citing a rise in online fraud and money laundering. KATHMANDU - Rights groups on July 31 urged Nepal to reverse a ban on the Telegram messaging app, calling the move a serious threat to freedom of expression and digital privacy. The Himalayan nation blocked access to the app on July 18, citing a rise in online fraud and money laundering. 'The government's ban is a serious human rights violation and a discriminatory decision,' said Mr Taranath Dahal of Freedom Forum, a media freedom watchdog. 'This shows the government can ban any platform without transparency, which is extremely concerning.' Freedom Forum was among more than two dozen organisations to release a statement demanding an 'immediate' reversal of the ban. 'The sudden, unlawful disruption has severely impacted journalists, human rights defenders, students, small businesses, and others who depend on the platform for essential day-to-day communication,' said a statement released by #KeepItOn, an international coalition of civil society organisations. Mr Min Prasad Aryal, spokesperson for the Nepal Telecommunication Authority, confirmed the government's directive. 'We asked all internet service providers to block the app after receiving an order from the Prime Minister's Office,' Mr Aryal told AFP. In a statement sent to AFP, Telegram said it had 'always responded to Nepal's legal requests' and that it 'actively moderates harmful content on its platform and removes cases of fraud and money laundering as soon as they are discovered, although we have not received any reports of this from Nepalese authorities'. Nepal has restricted access to popular online platforms in the past. In August last year, the government lifted a nine-month ban on TikTok after the platform's South Asia division agreed to comply with Nepali regulations. Telegram, launched in 2013, is a cloud-based messaging app known for its privacy features and support for large group chats and broadcast channels. The app has an estimated billion users worldwide, but faces restrictions in some countries. Telegram's Russian-born founder and chief executive Pavel Durov was briefly detained in France last year and questioned again this week about the platform's alleged complicity in criminal activity.
