David Villa's New Boots - In Detail | Joma Propulsion Lite Football Boots
It is well possible that Spain legend David Villa will join Spanish brand Joma after the former FC Barcelona and Adidas player trained in Joma's Propulsion Lite football shoes. We take a closer look at Joma's speed boots silo that was released in Summer 2016.
Joma Propulsion Lite Soccer Cleats
Made for ultimate speed, the Joma Propulsion Lite boots feature a feature a lightweight, one-piece microfiber upper that is similar to the upper of some old Nike Mercurial Vapor boots. The cleats have a ultra-lightweight sole plate with an external heel counter and a traditional low-cut boot construction.
Interestingly, the first Joma Propulsion Lite soccer cleats that were released in 2016 featured a upper that reminds us of the upper of the Adidas Adizero 2014 World Cup boots, while the Spanish brand quite secretly updated the upper material for the 2017 edition of the cleats.

Design-wise, the Joma Propulsion Lite football boots are anything but clean and classic. They boast a zig-zag graphic and a Joma branding that is placed on the front part of upper rather than on the outstep (traditional Joma boot design).
The Joma Propulsion Lite soccer cleats retail at a price of 105 GBP (140 Euro).

Uruguay Requests FIFA 'Legacy' Patch for Muslera's 2026 World Cup Kit
The Uruguayan Football Association (AUF) has formally requested that FIFA allow goalkeeper Fernando Muslera to wear the special 'Legacy' patch on his jersey sleeve during the 2026 World Cup. The patch is designated for players who have participated in five or more World Cup tournaments, a milestone Muslera is reaching with his inclusion in the 2026 squad.
Muslera was initially excluded from receiving the patch by FIFA because he did not register any playing time during the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, despite being part of the official squad. His previous World Cup appearances came in 2010, 2014, and 2018. The AUF is now pushing for his recognition alongside other five-time tournament veterans such as Lionel Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo, Manuel Neuer, and Luka Modrić.
The 40-year-old goalkeeper is expected to start in Uruguay's opening match of the 2026 World Cup. If FIFA approves the request, Muslera's jersey will feature the 'Legacy' patch, marking his long-standing service to the national team across five different World Cup campaigns.
