LeBron James Wears Liverpool Jersey - Nike > New Balance?

Improved marketing opportunities with Nike were one of the main arguments of Liverpool's side during the New Balance trial.

And now none other than NBA superstar LeBron James has turned up to the Lakers' game against OKC wearing the brand-new Liverpool 20-21 home kit, somewhat proving that point.

The picture was shared by the LA Lakers with the caption "Feeling Premier" and so far gathered almost 14k retweets and more than 50k likes.

Back during the trial, the Liverpool side had stated that Nike had proposed to enroll some of its non-football ambassadors such as Drake, LeBron James and Serena Williams for promotion.

In the case of James, it has to be noted that he's not only signed to Nike in a lifetime deal but also a shareholder of Liverpool.

In similar news, there were reports earlier this year about Liverpool teaming up with one of Nike's sub-brands for a collection as well as collab with a US-based sports team.
