Update - November 16: Marca reports that Sergio Ramos, who is set to make his comeback against Atlético this weekend, wants two million Euro / season for a new sponsorship deal that should run at least for four years. His deal with Nike expired in June, while the favorites to become Ramos' new boot supplier are Adidas and Nike.
Ramos current ban on wearing other brands will end in February 2017, as do the first refusal rights held by his existing sponsor.

This is a close-up of the Adidas X cleats worn by Ramos.
Whereas Sergio Ramos was wearing blackout Nike Tiempo cleats in his last official match with Spain and wore blackout Adidas X PureChaos cleats in training previously, the fact that the Real Madrid superstar now even wore the Adidas X 16.1 Leather soccer boots makes it very likely that he will leave Nike and join the Three Stripes at the start of the year.
