Memphis Depay To Leave Under Armour
Mar 4, 2021, by Chris
Update: Memphis Depay has debuted the Nike Mercurial Vapor 14 Dragonfly boots. His time with Under Armour is likely over and he could sign with Nike.
However, he might only choose to wear Nike boots without having a contract with the Swoosh (Nike did not extend the contracts with various players in the past 12 months). We will keep an eye on his cleats in the coming weeks.

Memphis Depay Spotted With Nike Mercurial Vapor 14 Soccer Cleats
In training ahead of the league match against Rennes, Memphis Depay was spotted wearing the Nike Mercurial Vapor 14 Dragonfly boots instead of his regular choice, the Armour ClutchFit Force 3.0.
Memphis Depay's boot switch comes as quite a surprise as there was no info that his deal with Under Armour would be over. It is also unexpected as Nike has recently not extended the contracts with various players.
However, Under Armour has been in financial trouble since more than a year, when they had to delay payments for their athletes.
Depay has never worn Nike boots in his career. He had been sponsored by Adidas since his youth and wore the brand's F50 boots before joining Under Armour.
Watch out for Memphis Depay's boots in this evening's Ligue 1 match against Stade Rennais.

Arsenal talisman Bukayo Saka and Real Madrid signing Yan Diomande have both taken to the pitch wearing all-white New Balance Furon V9 boots at the start of the 26-27 campaign. Thanks to @volkyfootballboots.v2 for spotting.

It’s normal that brands hide their new flagship-shoes with a whiteout colorway until their release takes place officially, so competitors can’t already get an early glimpse into their newest design.
