Liverpool could be set to announce the biggest kit deal in Premier League history with an agreement with Nike close.

The Reds currently bring in £45 million per year from their current contract with New Balance and now looking to link up with Nike when that deal expires next summer.

Although a legal battle may materialise with New Balance claiming their right to match Nike's offer. Regardless, Liverpool now look set to reset the market in England and beyond.

With the Reds currently European champions after clinching the Champions League last season and leading the Premier League by five points, their visibility and marketability has never been higher.

A new deal should allow Jurgen Klopp even greater freedom in the transfer market to ensure they remain formidable for years to come.

Here are the top 20 kit deals in world football.
