Dybala Showcases New Outstanding Blackout 'Dybala' Mercurial Superfly Boots

Update: Dybala has added his new logo on the blackout Nike Mercurial Superfly V football boots, creating a 'Dybala Nike Mercurial Superfly 5 blackout boot'. It is not unlikely that he will join Adidas soon.

Dybala's boots are a blacked-out Nike Mercurial Superfly boot with his logo on the outstep.

Update: Not sure if he was inspired by this post, but Paulo Dybala laced up in an updated, more professionally crafted version of his blackout Nike Mercurial Superfly V boots. Check out some pictures from the game against Crotone below and compare the boots to what Dybala was wearing against Inter further down.

Another player who stood out his choice of footwear this weekend is Juventus forward Paulo Dybala. After Dybala was spotted wearing a pair of completely blackout football boots against Inter on Sunday, speculation quickly arose in regards to the Argentine's contract with Nike. Thanks to @football_nerds for the heads up.

Dybala Debuts Blackout Nike Boots

Here is a close-up of the soccer cleats worn by Paulo Dybala against Inter.

Based on the Dark Lightning colorway, launched in November 2016, Dybala's Nike Mercurial Superfly V boots still show hints of the blue and green details found on the upper of the original. On top of that, parts of the Swooshes, white on the base paint job, are still easily visible, highlighting the amateur execution of this blackout.

The most important question originating from all this, though, is whether it means that Dybala is set to leave Nike. Weighing up pros and cons, we believe that everything indicates that Dybala could in fact be leaving the Swoosh shortly, mostly because the year is still young and a lot of these type of contracts run out at the end of the year.

What do you think? Will Dybala be leaving the Swoosh shortly? Let us know in the comments below, and check out the Boot Calendar for all the latest Nike soccer cleat leaks.
