The club described the new agreement as a "return to the past to project into the future," referencing Hummel's previous stint as Vitória SC's kit supplier during 1992-92.

Liga Portugal has officially unveiled the Puma Stellar Nitro Ultimate as its official match ball for the upcoming 2026-2027 season.

This latest release firmly aligns the Portuguese top flight with other major European heavyweights, as the exact same base model will also be utilized across the English Premier League, Spain's La Liga, and Italy's Serie A. Visually, the Liga Portugal 2026-2027 soccer ball features a white base highlighted by vibrant neon accents - a very colorful look that is anything but classy.

Beneath the striking exterior, the Stellar Nitro Ultimate is packed with cutting-edge engineering designed to accommodate the speed of the modern game. The core of the ball utilizes Puma's innovative Nitrofoam technology, a nitrogen-infused layer that delivers maximum energy return upon impact for significantly faster passes and more explosive shots. Its symmetrical eight-panel configuration is seamlessly joined using high-frequency molding, a construction method that dramatically reduces water absorption while increasing overall shape retention. Additionally, a 1.1-millimeter textured 3D polyurethane surface combined with micro-roughness provides players with superior grip, aerodynamic stability, and highly predictable flight trajectories under varying weather conditions.
