Conor McGregor's been banned from selling some of his sportswear range in Europe by a Dutch court.

A district court in The Hague has reportedly ordered sports giant Adidas, and its subsidiary Reebok, to withdraw some of the items - such as shirts, hoodies and shorts - with McGregor's name on them.

The items with his signature on them have to be withdrawn within seven days.

This is after another McGregor fashion label took the trademark infringement case.

Lawyers for the company claimed the public could be confused into believing some of the clothing made by Reebok was part of their collection.

Lawyer Remco van Leeuwen said in an interview with Dutch channel RTLZ: "Clothing has been available on the European market for decades under the McGregor brand".

"The public may confuse Reebok's clothing with McGregor's."

The Dutch company is known for classic polo shirts.
