Adidas is reviving iconic balls from the past, bringing back the Roteiro Euro 2004 ball in March this year, and will bring back the Teamgeist World Cup 2006 ball in March next year. Will they bring back the legendary Jabulani World Cup 2010 ball in 2026/2027?
Will Adidas Re-release the 2010 World Cup Jabulani Ball?
Footy Headlines predicts that Adidas will re-release the 2010 World Cup Jabulani ball, possibly in 2026 or 2027. The ball remains popular and sought after due to its unpredictable movement and trajectory.
The Jabulani World Cup 2010 ball has an 8-panel structure, which differs from the 14-panel structure of the Teamgeist 2006 ball. The change in construction has made the trajectory and movement of the ball unstable and unpredictable. This makes it a nightmare for most goalkeepers at the 2010 World Cup.
The Jabulani ball is still being sold on Ebay and other e-commerce sites at very high prices. In January 2024, it was selling for 499 EUR, almost 4 times the original price.

Nottingham Forest Women Wear Training Tops vs Southampton to Avoid Color Blindness Clash
In an unusual kit occurrence, Nottingham Forest Women took to the pitch wearing training tops instead of their official 26-27 away kit during their match against Southampton Women at St Mary's Stadium on Sunday. The late switch was implemented specifically to avoid color blindness visibility issues that would have arisen from a red-versus-green clash. Huge thanks to @david_g_cooper for the spot.
With Southampton wearing their traditional red-and-white home kit, Nottingham Forest's primary alternative option - their green 26-27 away shirt - posed a serious dilemma. Red and green kit pairings are strictly discouraged by governing bodies and accessibility guidelines because they become indistinguishable to individuals with red-green color vision deficiency, which affects roughly 8% of men and 0.5% of women.
Since Nottingham Forest's home shirt is also red, the club resorted to dark training gear with match numbers applied on the back to provide adequate contrast for players, referees, and spectators.
Forest could have worn their light blue kit, but apparently they did not bring it.
Dominik Szoboszlai Reveals Nike Air Max 95 'Liverpool'
Liverpool midfielder Dominik Szoboszlai has officially debuted the upcoming Nike Air Max 95 'Liverpool', a special-edition release designed in partnership with JD Sports ahead of their annual 1.10 Day celebration. Deeply rooted in local street culture, where the model has long been nicknamed the '110' after its original UK retail price, the sneaker is packed with bespoke details paying tribute to Merseyside. The shoe features mismatched accents of dockland-inspired 'Rust Factor' orange alongside 'Steam' green referencing the city's Liver Birds, complemented by a reflective brick pattern, a River Mersey map printed across the insole, a custom 'Liverpool' tongue badge, and 'SCOUSE' lettering visible beneath the outsole.
