"Umbro is pleased to announce a new long-term partnership agreement with Accra Hearts of Oak, one of Africa’s oldest and most decorated football clubs," Umbro announced on Monday.
On their part, Accra Hearts of Oak also told the media via a press release that “they were thrilled to welcome Umbro” into the Phobian family.

Chief Executive of Hearts of Oak, Mark Noonan also urged Phobians to embrace and give their full support to this new partnership.
"The brands were seemingly meant to be together as they can both trace history back to Manchester, UK in the early 1900’s. When Hearts of Oak launched its first-ever rainbow kits in 1917, they were sourced from a manufacturer in the famed English city. These rainbow colours have become synonymous with the “Phobia” over the years, creating one of the most unique and recognisable club identities on the Continent. Umbro, of course, was founded in the outskirts of Manchester in 1924, and has since grown in to one of the world’s leading football brands."
The partnership will see Umbro become the exclusive global technical partner of Hearts of Oak, supplying the players with authentic competition wear, training apparel and equipment, off field apparel, footwear and luggage.
