Exclusive: Adidas to Re-Release 2006 World Cup Teamgeist Ball

The iconic 2006 World Cup Teamgeist ball will make a comeback in 2025, Footy Headlines can exclusively reveal.

Adidas 2006 World Cup Teamgeist 2025 Remake Soccer Ball

The Adidas 2006 World Cup Teamgeist remake ball is set to be a 1-to-1 remake of the original ball.

The Teamgeist is known for its inconsistent flight

The Teamgeist was revolutionary when it debuted at the 2006 FIFA World Cup in Germany. Unlike traditional 32-panel balls, Teamgeist featured just 14 thermally bonded panels. However, it did not really work out. The ball was known for its inconsistent flight and was hated by goalkeepers.

Its name, "Teamgeist", meaning "team spirit" in German, reflected the ethos of that World Cup—emphasizing unity and collective strength.

Adidas Euro 2004-2024 Remake Balls

The Adidas Teamgeist is scheduled for March 2025. This follows the 2024 re-release of the Roteiro Euro 2004 ball, keeping with the trend of reviving legendary footballs from past tournaments. The Adidas 2025 Teamgeist remake ball will be priced in line with current high-end Adidas match balls - around 150 euros.

The re-release could kill the reseller market

Indeed, the Teamgeist is a rare collector's item today, also because of its knuckleball feature. You will have to pay 400 euros upwards for a brand-new ball - the re-release could kill the reseller market.
