In shocking news from Brazil, Brazilian Paris Saint-Germain superstar Neymar is reported to leave Nike - the announcement would be made by Neymar already next week.
Diário do Peixe: "Neymar Will Leave Nike"
As exclusively reported by Santos news platform "Diário do Peixe", Neymar will announce next week (September 1) that he will leave Nike.
Next Tuesday, Septmeber 1st, the PSG star will announce the termination of the contract with Nike
Neymar had been sponsored by Nike since the age of 13. In 2011, Neymar renewed the Nike agreement until 2022, this being the current contract that should be broken by the athlete.
Due to his arrival in French football, Paris Saint-Germain himself obtained an increase in his contract, given the strength of the player's image and his potential to sell shirts.
Recently, Neymar did not feature in global brand campaigns. In the video “Nothing can stop the sport”, released a month ago, Nike used the image of Cristiano Ronaldo and Kylian Mbappé, without counting on the presence of the Brazilian.
Puma appears as the player's likely destination
According to “Diário do Peixe”, Puma appears as the player's likely destination.

Turkey 2026 World Cup Pre-Match Shirt Revealed - Streamlined Nike Template for Smaller Nations
Nike's preparations for the 2026 World Cup are being finalized with the reveal of the new Turkey pre-match shirt.
Rather than receiving a bespoke design, the new Nike Turkey 2026 World Cup pre-match jersey utilizes a highly visible, streamlined template that the American sportswear brand will be rolling out across its wider portfolio of sponsored national federations.
The defining feature of the Turkey 2026 pre-match shirt is its bold, all-over geometric graphic. The template consists of tightly packed, wavy zig-zag lines that warp and curve to create a dynamic optical illusion across the entire torso and sleeves. For the Turkish national team, this busy pattern is executed in vibrant, contrasting shades of red and dark orange.
Nike is applying this exact same streamlined template to several other national teams, simply adjusting the color palettes to suit each country. European sides like Norway and Finland, alongside South American heavyweights Uruguay, will all sport identical pre-match designs featuring their respective national colors applied to the same wavy graphic.
