Atlético Mineiro Partners with Nike Starting 2026
Atlético Mineiro has secured a four-year deal with Nike beginning January 2026, replacing Adidas as its kit supplier. Nike becomes Atlético Mineiro's kit maker for the first time in the club's history. Adidas had been making Atlético Mineiro's kits since 2022.
Nike will supply match, training, travel and lifestyle gear for the men’s and women’s teams, as well as all youth categories and staff. The first official Nike Atlético Mineiro kits will debut in the State Championship next year.
Before that, Atlético’s youth teams will wear temporary Nike uniforms during the 2026 Copa São Paulo de Futebol Júnior. These items will not be sold and will be used only during the tournament, keeping the official launch for the senior squad.
To announce the partnership, Nike released the campaign “The Greatest Play Together”, featuring a 15-meter truck travelling through Belo Horizonte with references to iconic moments in the club’s history. The film ends at Arena MRV with the message marking the start of the collaboration.

Turkey 2026 World Cup Pre-Match Shirt Revealed - Streamlined Nike Template for Smaller Nations
Nike's preparations for the 2026 World Cup are being finalized with the reveal of the new Turkey pre-match shirt.
Rather than receiving a bespoke design, the new Nike Turkey 2026 World Cup pre-match jersey utilizes a highly visible, streamlined template that the American sportswear brand will be rolling out across its wider portfolio of sponsored national federations.
The defining feature of the Turkey 2026 pre-match shirt is its bold, all-over geometric graphic. The template consists of tightly packed, wavy zig-zag lines that warp and curve to create a dynamic optical illusion across the entire torso and sleeves. For the Turkish national team, this busy pattern is executed in vibrant, contrasting shades of red and dark orange.
Nike is applying this exact same streamlined template to several other national teams, simply adjusting the color palettes to suit each country. European sides like Norway and Finland, alongside South American heavyweights Uruguay, will all sport identical pre-match designs featuring their respective national colors applied to the same wavy graphic.
What are your thoughts on Nike utilizing a shared, streamlined template for its 2026 national team pre-match shirts? Let us know in the comments below.
