Let's take a look at the boots to be worn by the Chelsea and Manchester City players worn in today's Champions League final, in cooperation with Football Boots DB.
2021 UEFA Champions League Boots
The 2021 Champions League final will feature boots of four brands - Adidas, New Balance, Nike, and Puma.
Nike dominates the 2021 Champions League final but has fewer players than the brand used to have as the Swoosh did not extend some contracts (e.g. Sterling). In contrast, Puma managed to snap quite a few Man City players, making the boots for four of the expected XI.
Nike Has Fundamentally Changed Its Strategy In Football
Adidas makes the boots for just three starters
Adidas makes the boots for just three players of the expected 22 starters, while New Balance signed Sterling just in time for the big game. Despite Adidas having launched a special silver boots collection, not a single Adidas player will wear them.
