Update - Monday, 15 December 2025: Adidas officially announced the signing of Real Madrid winger Rodrygo.
The Brazilian wears the Adidas F50 football boots in a modified version with a collar seen on the Adidas X Speedlfow football boots from three years ago.
5 August 2025: In Real Madrid's latest training session, Rodrygo was spotted wearing the newest Adidas F50 boots. This strongly suggests that he may be leaving Nike after 10 years to join Adidas.
Update: In yesterday's match against Valencia, Rodrygo was spotted wearing whiteout Nike Mercurial Vapor 16 boots. This is further evidence that he and Nike are on the verge of parting ways.
Rodrygo to Join Adidas
By wearing Adidas F50 boots, complete with the tag ID on them, it strongly suggests that Rodrygo may be on his way to joining the Three Stripes.
Although he hasn't officially confirmed a move to any brand, Rodrygo has been seen wearing both Puma and Adidas boots recently, indicating that he's likely set to part ways with Nike after more than a decade - a relationship that began when he was just a kid.
Wearing blackout boots, black painted boots are often a sign that a player is about to leave his boot supplier. Rodrygo wore the Vapor 16 'Shadow' boots released from summer 2024.
Previously an ambassador for the Phantom silo, Rodrygo switched to wearing the Mercurial Vapor in early 2024.

FUS Rabat 26-27 Home & Away Kits Released
Moroccan Botola Pro side FUS Rabat has officially unveiled its new home and away kits for the 26-27 season, manufactured by Spanish brand Joma. The capital club steps into the new campaign with a coordinated and sharp visual identity across both strips.
The Joma FUS Rabat 26-27 home shirt is predominantly red, anchored by a prominent central white stripe that runs down the body, broken only for the main sponsor. The fabric features an understated tonal texture throughout, accompanied by a clean white crew neck collar. Inverting the look, the 26-27 away shirt relies on a clean white base centered around a bold red vertical stripe and matching red accents.
Both jerseys carry the traditional FUS Rabat crest on the left chest, with Novec Groupe CDG and Cosumar featured as shirt sponsors. The away kit also includes neat Arabic calligraphy spelling out "Rabat" on the upper back above the player names and numbers. Matching shorts and socks complete the Moroccan club's new 26-27 wardrobe.

Following Nike's official launch of the pair on September 21, 2026, the Australian forward wasted no time lacing them up for competitive action. Kerr took to the pitch wearing her preferred low-cut iteration of the silhouette, continuing her longstanding preference for low collars over the high dynamic fit collar.

Croatia Debuts Adidas 26-27 Away Kit
Croatia officially kicked off its new era with Adidas on Saturday night, debuting the 26-27 away kit during a 2-1 UEFA Nations League victory against Czechia in Prague. The match marked the first on-pitch appearance for the Vatreni in the three stripes following the conclusion of their 26-year partnership with Nike this summer.
The new Croatia 26-27 away strip is predominantly deep blue and features an intricate tonal graphic inspired by the country's centuries-old lacemaking heritage from regions such as Pag and Lepoglava. The textured pattern is complemented by vibrant coral red accents across the V-neck collar, sleeve cuffs, and shoulder stripes, while the chest features a clean white Trefoil logo opposite the federation crest.
Completed with matching deep blue shorts and socks, the kit looked sharp on the pitch and has earned praise from supporters for its blend of cultural motifs and modern detailing.
