The Royal Challengers Bangalore are set to debut the new and improved RCB 2021 jersey as they take the field for the IPL 2021 in April. Having finalized Puma as their new 'Official kit sponsors', Virat Kohli and co. will now don their famous red jerseys but with the addition of the leaping Puma logo on the sleeve. This association is an extension of Puma's existing relationship with the RCB skipper, who signed a ₹100 crore deal with them back in 2017. With a multi-year deal in place, Puma will have exclusive retailing rights for RCB's merchandise.
Echoing the words of Abhishek Ganguly, Managing Director, Puma India and Southeast Asia, Kohli stated that it was "great to welcome PUMA to the RCB family! A global brand with a strong sporting vision and great quality products, their extensive distribution network through offline and online channels will ensure fans have access to RCB merchandise across the country".
