Slovak club MŠK Žilina's new 2026-27 home kit has been revealed, confirming their continued partnership with Nike. Teased earlier in July and fully unveiled by Slovak kit accounts on July 6, the new shirt introduces a bespoke design for the team, marking a notable shift from the modified catalog templates used in previous seasons.

Désiré Doué Wears Both Nike Mercurial Vapor 17 and Superfly 11 Boots
French rising star Désiré Doué, has been frequently switching between the Nike Mercurial Vapor 17 and Superfly 11 boots over the past few weeks. Doué opted for the low-cut Nike Mercurial Vapor 17 for the 2025-26 UEFA Champions League final, but then surprised fans by starting the 2026 World Cup wearing the high-cut Superfly 11.
However, his stint with the Superfly 11 was short-lived, as Doué recently switched back to the Mercurial Vapor 17 for France's latest matches at the tournament. This indecision between the collared and non-collared versions of Nike's speed boot is notable for a player who is heavily featured in the brand's promotional campaigns. Doué has also been spotted wearing reissue Mercurial Vapor Superfly 1 boots recently, showcasing his affinity for the Mercurial heritage.
