Why do all the MLS teams have adidas as their sponsor?

Question

Is it just a coincidence or is it a requirement MLS puts out?

Answer 1

yeah i think thats true

Answer 2

Because no one else will!

Answer 3

its a requiremet from mls, adidas sponsors the whole league LA was sponsored by nike till the 2006 season when mls agreed to the total  league sponsorship

Answer 4

The MLS signed an agreement with Adidas so all the teams can have Adidas. I think they signed it last year, because last season i think Galaxy had Nike, but since they also got David Beckham, and he is signed with Adidas, it was just more profit to make the switch....

cause im sure if Chivas USA could use any brand they would go with Reebok, since Vergara has contracts with them for Chivas Guadalajara and Sapprissa

Answer 5

the mls signed a contract with addidas last year......its da same way in the nfl who signed with reebok and the nba with addidas...

Answer 6

Its because the MLS controls everything in the league, for example, if a foreign club wanted to buy a player from the MLS, they would have to make the deal with the MLS , instead of the club. MLS also set a limit on the player's salary.
