Update: It now seems to be certain that Petr Cech joined Puma after he wore Puma evoPOWER boots and Puma gloves in today's EPL match against Liverpool, which was Arsenal's first official match of the season.
Legendary Arsenal goalkeeper Petr Cech looks to have joined his team's jersey supplier Puma from Adidas, judging from images showing him wearing the brand's gear in pre-season training.
Petr Cech Trains in Puma Boots & Gloves
Cech was spotted wearing Puma evoPOWER boots and goalkeeper gloves, having worn Adidas cleats and gloves at Euro 2016 just about a month earlier. Cech had been wearing Adidas boots for the most part of his career in fact, although during this first years at Chelsea he used boots and gloves by Italian brand Lotto.
The fact that Cech's Puma boots and gloves were not blacked out, and that he was spotted wearing them in all of his club's training sessions since the start of pre-season, suggest that the Czech's switch from Adidas to Puma is all but confirmed.
