Many concept kits have been posted by Celtic fan accounts on social media

The Hoops' tie-up with the American firm expires in the summer and many fans are speculating that the discounts in the club shop may be indicative of a big announcement on the way.

An article on the website claimed: "A Celtic Park insider has confirmed to us that the club will sign with the three-stripe brand next season."

Supporters have been excited by the prospect of Adidas producing the club's kits for the first time in history. Prior to the New Balance deal, Celtic had kits made by Umbro and Nike, but many fans were unimpressed with the kits made by the US-based supplier.
