Puma Portugal Deal Still Not Officially Announced
- Puma Partnership: Puma is set to be Portugal's kit supplier from January 1, 2025, though the deal is not officially announced.
- Deal Signed and Kits Produced: The Puma-Portugal deal has been signed for over a year, and the 2025 kits have already been manufactured, including some designs already leaked.
- Announcement Uncertainty: The official announcement timing is unknown, potentially in November 2024 or sometime before 2025, differing from typical early announcements for high-profile teams.
Puma is set to become the Portugal national team’s official kit supplier starting January 1, 2025. However, the deal between Puma and the Portuguese Football Federation (FPF) has yet to be formally confirmed.
Puma Portugal Kit Deal is Signed & Kits Have Been Produced
Most importantly, Footy Headlines understands that the Portugal-Puma deal has been signed for more than a year now. The Portugal 2025 Puma kits have already been produced, and there are even leaks of the apparent Puma Portugal 2025 kits. The first Portugal designs by Puma have received a mid-reaction so far.
Kit supplier deals vary widely in terms of announcement timing. In some cases, like Germany’s Nike deal (set to start in 2027, announced in 2024 after a tender), the news is shared years in advance. Other agreements are announced just weeks before they take effect.
With high-profile teams like Portugal, however, brands often confirm deals several months, if not years, in advance, given the impact of these collaborations. With Portugal, it is different.
Nike will have a "last dance" with Portugal
Portugal's current kit supplier, Nike, is planning a "last dance" by re-releasing the Portugal Euro 2004 kit, giving fans a chance to own the possible most iconic Nike Portugal kit in history before the brand hands the reins over to Puma.
Footy Headlines has no information on when the Portugal Football Federation and Puma will announce their partnership. It is, well, possible this month, November 2024, but we could also see no announcement before 2025.

Venezia and Rapid Wien Release Special Collaborative Kit
Venezia FC and SK Rapid have unveiled two special limited-edition jerseys to celebrate the 26th anniversary of the historic friendship between their supporters and clubs. The twinning, which officially traces back to January 15, 2000, was commemorated on the pitch during an international friendly at the Stadio Pier Luigi Penzo, with both sides wearing the bespoke designs.
The collaboration includes two distinct shirts designed in close cooperation with the fan groups. The black Unione jersey features an all-over diamond jacquard pattern, complemented by Venezia's orange and green checkerboard on the right shoulder and Rapid's green and white stripes on the left. The white Unione shirt presents a split look blending green and orange accents with line illustrations of iconic architectural landmarks from both Venice and Vienna, including the Doge's Palace and St. Stephen's Cathedral. Both designs place the lion of Saint Mark and the Austrian eagle crests side by side above the date 15.01.2000.
During the friendly match on the Venetian lagoon, the hosts wore the black kit while Rapid took to the pitch in the white version, with Venezia edging a 1-0 victory. The limited-edition jerseys have been made available to supporters through Venezia's official online store and physical club shops.
Unique Jordan PSG 26-27 Third Goalkeeper Kit Leaked - Inspired by Bernard Lama
The striking new goalkeeper jersey from the upcoming Paris Saint-Germain x Jordan third collection has leaked courtesy of PSG insider @lasource75006. Scheduled to drop in the coming weeks alongside the club's 26-27 third player kit, the long-sleeve piece pays direct homage to iconic former Paris Saint-Germain shot-stopper Bernard Lama.
The Jordan PSG 26-27 third goalkeeper shirt draws inspiration from the distinctive Nike template worn by Lama during the 1997-98 season. It features a vibrant red base with sharp black vertical stripes tapering upward from the lower hem. The long sleeves are adorned with dynamic graphic streaks in shades of purple, blue, and black, perfectly channeling the flamboyant goalkeeper aesthetics of the late 1990s.
Gold detailing rounds off the design, highlighted by a centrally aligned Jordan Jumpman sitting above a monochrome Paris Saint-Germain crest and the Qatar Airways chest sponsor.

The bespoke design pays tribute to a historic local milestone, commemorating the 750th anniversary of the consecration of the Collegiate Church of Neuchâtel (Collégiale de Neuchâtel), which took place in 1276.
The Capelli Neuchâtel Xamax 26-27 Fête des Vendanges shirt arrives in a sharp black and silver colorway, covered in intricate architectural illustrations of the famous landmark. The front of the jersey features repeating linework depicting the church's Gothic arches, towers, and rose windows, flowing into detailed clock faces and decorative borders around the lower hem. Finished with matching ornate patterns along the collar and cuffs, all sponsor and club logos are rendered in monochrome silver
Montenegro 2026 Home & Away Kits Released
Italian sportswear brand Legea has rolled out the new home and away kits for the Montenegro national football team. The long-standing partnership between Legea and the Football Association of Montenegro continues with a fresh set of bespoke designs showcased on display mannequins.
The new Montenegro 2026 home kit is predominantly red, accented with two prominent yellow vertical stripes running down the front of the jersey. In line with the central design focus, the white Legea wordmark and the national federation crest sit centrally on the chest above yellow squad numbering. The strip is rounded off with red shorts featuring yellow detailing and matching red socks.
The 2026 away kit adopts an inverted approach on a clean white base. It features a bold central vertical band in red, neatly outlined by thin yellow borders that run from the collar down to the hem. The Legea logo, national team crest, and front numbers are all aligned inside the central red stripe, completed by white shorts and white socks with subtle red and yellow trims.
All-New Adidas Crazylight Pro Concept Boots Revealed
Adidas has offered an intriguing look at the future of speed footwear at its Home of Innovation showcase held at the brand's headquarters in Herzogenaurach. Among several radical prototypes displayed across various sports categories, the standout for football was the striking Adidas Crazylight Pro concept, inspected during the event by Real Madrid forward Rodrygo. Big thanks to sr4u_josh.
The Crazylight moniker has long represented the pinnacle of lightweight engineering for Adidas, tracing back to the featherweight 99g and 135g F50 Adizero models of the mid-2010s through to modern experimental speed releases. This new Crazylight Pro concept pushes that design ethos even further, featuring an ultra-thin, semi-translucent upper finished in a crisp white, solar red, and black palette. Dynamic, curving support lines run along the forefoot and midfoot, creating an external skeleton designed to hold the foot securely without adding unnecessary bulk.
The most futuristic element sits on the underside, where Adidas revealed a chrome outsole constructed around an intricate skeletal frame. Spreading outward from the center in an organic, web-like pattern, the metallic structure anchors the studs while carved-out sections expose a translucent red base plate to shave off every possible gram. While Adidas has not announced a retail release for this exact model, concepts from the Crazylight Pro could provide an early preview of technology destined for upcoming generations of the F50 speed line in future seasons.
