Netherlands U21 Player Cody Gakpo Trains In Next-Generation PUMA Future 2020 Boots
Puma has equipped all of their major sponsored FC Barcelona players with what is almost certainly the next generation of the Puma Future Netfit soccer cleats, the Puma Future 20.1.
The Puma Future 20.1 are already Puma's fifth generation of the Future Netfit boot. The brand is releasing new generations of their boots two times a year - in January and July (every six months).

The boots worn by Antonie Griezmann, Sam Umtiti and Luis Suarez have the typical look of prototypes - they are completely blackout without any brandings.
Tech-wise, the next-generation Puma Future Netfit 20.1 cleats seem to be quite a big update compared to the current generation. The upper in the front area now features a synthetic layer, while the sole plate seems to have an external heel counter.
The next-generation Puma Future 20.1 Netfit soccer boots will be launched in January 2020, just six months after the previous generation (Puma Future 4.1).

Awesome: Leeds United 26-27 Home Kit Concept Based on Leaked Bayern München Away Kit
A stylish Leeds United home kit concept has caught the attention of fans online. Created by Leeds supporter and graphic designer @ZK1919, the concept directly adapts the design of an Adidas FC Bayern away kit, transforming it into a Leeds home shirt.
The concept features the classic Adidas Trefoil logo and integrates Leeds United's front-of-shirt sponsor, Red Bull. To match the club's traditional colors, the designer swapped the original red accents for yellow and outlined the Red Bull logo in blue. The concept also sparked discussions among supporters regarding the exact shade of yellow, the choice of the club badge, and the potential constraints of Red Bull's corporate branding rules on future kits.
While purely a fan-made design and not an official leak for the 2026-27 season, it highlights the potential of an Adidas Trefoil Leeds kit. The actual Leeds United 26-27 home kit has been very unpopular ahead of its release.
Bayern München 26-27 Away Slides Leaked
We can leak images of Adidas Bayern München slides, revealing a design mirroring by the club's upcoming away kit.
The slides feature a white base and a textured strap showcasing the traditional FC Bayern München e.V. crest. As 2026-27 away kit's color palette, the strap is accented with Adidas' signature three stripes in a distinct navy, red, and navy combination.
