Mike Ashley, the former owner of Newcastle United, has initiated a £1.5million legal action against the club, alleging that it has abused its dominant market position by refusing to allow his retail company, Sports Direct, to sell the club's Adidas kit for the 2024-25 season. Ashley is seeking an injunction against Newcastle United and is taking the matter to the competition regulator, claiming the club has restricted competition by not providing his company with the newest replica soccer kits. The dispute involves a sum of £1.533 million related to next season's kit sales. Britain's antitrust tribunal has been informed of the lawsuit.
