All 19-20 Balls - Champions League, Premier League, La Liga, Bundesliga and Much More
Following the start of the 2019-20 season around Europe, let's take a look at the different balls that will be used. The illustration was created by @EmilioSansolini.
Interestingly, just like last year, Adidas does not supply the ball for any of the national leagues - we will continue to have an Adidas ball in the Champions League - while Puma has managed to snap up the La Liga contract from Nike.
Champions League - Adidas Finale
The 2019-2020 Champions League football was unveiled just after the 2019 final. It features a slightly updated panel design.
Premier League - Nike Merlin
La Liga - Puma
The La Liga 19-20 ball is made by Puma after the previous contract with Nike, which had been the official ball supplier for more than 20 years, ran out.
Serie A - Nike Merlin
The Serie A ball is made by Nike once again. Unlike its Premier League counterpart, the Serie A football is based on the stock design of the 19-20 Merlin.
Bundesliga - Derbystar Match Brilliant APS
The Bundesliga ball for 2019-20 is once again made by Derbystar, who replaced Adidas a few years back.
Ligue 1 - Uhlsport Elysia
Liga Portugal - Select Brilliant Super TB
Nike was ousted by Select, which is the company that owns Derbystar, as the official ball supplier of the Portuguese league.
