Viktor Gyokeres Sticks to Lucky Old-Gen Nike Mercurial Vapor 16 'Mad Ambition' Boots
Swedish striker Viktor Gyokeres has developed a superstition regarding his football boots, choosing to stick with an older colorway of the Nike Mercurial Vapor 16. Despite Nike releasing several newer packs, the forward continues to wear the Mad Ambition edition. He considers this specific pair to be his lucky boots due to his prolific goalscoring form while wearing them.
Interestingly, Gyokeres has been spotted testing and warming up in newer Nike Mercurial releases. However, when it comes to the actual matches, he consistently reverts to his trusted Mad Ambition Vapor 16s. This practice of wearing new boots during warm-ups but relying on a comfortable, proven pair for competitive play highlights how important gear familiarity and superstition can be for a striker.
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.
