Arda Turan Switches to Customized Nike Magista Opus Boots Ahead of Barcelona Debut
Jan 1, 2016, by Pat
Closing in on his FC Barcelona debut, midfielder Arda Turan has opted to switch back to the Nike Magista Opus. Turan, Barcelona's new number 7, had been wearing Nike Tiempo Legend V and VI boots in the last few months.
Arda Turan's Custom Nike Magista Cleats
Arda Turan laced up in the "Metallic Pewter" Nike Magista Opus football boots in Barcelona training this week, a cleat he already wore at Atlético Madrid before changing to the Nike Tiempo Legend in September.
Arda Turan is set to make his long-awaited Barça debut on January 6 in the cup against local rivals Espanyol. And while it looks like he's going to wear Nike Magista boots doing that, they aren't really the standard model available in stores. Instead of featuring the original Magista sole plate, designed to offer rotational agility through conical stats, Arda Turan's silver Magistas come with the stud configuration of the Nike Tiempo.
Are you looking forward to seeing Arda Turan in the Barcelona jersey? Let us know in the comments below.

Nike to Sell Long-Sleeve Besiktas Kits From 27-28 Season
Nike is set to introduce commercially available long-sleeve kits for Beşiktaş starting from the 27-28 season. Following the club's major switch from Adidas after 17 years, supporters will finally have direct access to official long-sleeve match jerseys at retail. Big thanks to @ertansuzgun & @Formaholic.
The timing aligns with significant milestone celebrations in Istanbul, as Nike is also planning a special 125th-anniversary collection for Beşiktaş during the 27-28 campaign to mark the club's foundation in 1903. Rather than relying on base layers and compression undershirts, players and fans alike will see dedicated long-sleeve designs included in the lineup.
The development forms part of Nike's wider strategy to bring back commercial long-sleeve authentic shirts across its elite roster from 27-28 onwards. By expanding long-sleeve availability to Beşiktaş, Nike closes the gap on rivals like Adidas and provides the Black Eagles with full top-tier treatment under their new partnership.
