Many fans hope to see Mbappé and Haaland standing together as representatives of the Nike Mercurial lineup. However, it is quite possible that this hope will remain just that—hope. In a recent event for Manchester City fans at Etihad, Erling Haaland was seen wearing the X Speedportal.1 shoes. This sign suggests that Haaland might sign a contract with Adidas in the near future.
In the past, Haaland has been associated with various renowned sportswear brands like Nike, Puma, and Adidas. Recently, he secured a new destination in his career by signing a five-year contract with Manchester City. As for his brand collaboration, it remains uncertain which brand Haaland will choose.
Notably, Haaland has been associated with Nike since the start of his professional career. However, as they say, all beginnings eventually come to an end. Currently, the new number 9 player of Manchester City and Nike have not announced any new contract.
During his recovery phase after a season-ending injury, the former Dortmund football star was spotted wearing the X Speedflow model by the three stripes brand. Erling Haaland is believed to have had a meeting with superstar Zinedine Zidane at Adidas’s football shoe headquarters in Herzogenaurach.
Nevertheless, this is not enough evidence to confirm that Haaland has made his final decision for collaboration with Adidas. It’s not completely ruled out that Haaland might become a representative face for PUMA.
As recently shared, Haaland has officially joined Man City. Currently, Manchester City is sponsored by PUMA for their sports shoes. The young player has also been seen wearing the Manchester City 2021 – Ultra 1.3 PUMA shoes in some of the team’s advertising images.
Considering the possibilities between the two brands, the three stripes brand seems to be in a better position compared to Germany’s PUMA, as Haaland opted for the X Speedportal.1 during his official debut event.
Although there hasn’t been any official announcement or specific answer, signs suggest that Adidas has a substantial advantage.
We are not insiders, and we can’t predict Haaland’s final choice between PUMA and Adidas. Let’s wait for an official contract to answer all the questions. The Norwegian forward has always commanded a high price for any deal, not just for his on-field skills but also for his distinctive personality. Haaland exudes immense confidence, if not a hint of arrogance. To secure his signature in this deal, the price tag might be the biggest factor, and Adidas appears to be willing to invest!
