Sterling Wears Blackout Boots in Training - Prototpye / Next-Gen / Custom Puma Ultra?

The boots worn by Sterling are totally blackout. They have a synthetic upper that appears to be quite thin but relatively stiff, a very low collar and no distinct tongue.

However, while you might first think that Sterling tested the all-new Puma Ultra boots, they are different to the launch edition of the Puma Ultra - see the lace holes and the upper as examples.

The sole plate seems of the cleats has a large external heel counter.

It is most likely that Sterling was wearing a custom version of the all-new Puma Ultra, or the next-gen of the Puma Ultra.

While it first seems like that Sterling was wearing a never-seen-before soccer cleat without any brandings, a closer look and a look in the past reveals that Sterling's blackout cleats could be the same as those used by Hazard in training in November 2018.
