### Read Liverpool Verdict

This is a hugely exciting announcement by the club, taking them up another level.

New Balance were perfect for the Reds before, but their Champions League win and ever-growing quality as a team means they should be sponsored by the world’s biggest sports brand.

It means more money should be available for buying players, allowing Jurgen Klopp to make his side even more formidable.

It is a wonderful time to be a Liverpool supporter, with the club being run seamlessly on and off the pitch.
