Update: For the first time in his career, Radamel Falcao laced up in the Nike Mercurial Vapor 11 boots in an official match. It is expected that there will be an official confirmation of Falcao's switch to Nike in the coming weeks.

It is very likely that AS Monaco striker Radamel Falcao will join Nike as he laced up in brand-new Nike Mercurial Vapor 11 Motion Blur Pack football boots in today's training session.
Radamel Falcao has laced up in blackout Puma evoSPEED football boots in almost all matches since the beginning of the current season as his contract with the German brand expired in late September 2016 after five years.
Radamel Falcao to Join Nike

Radamel Falcao's boots are the same as the regular edition of the brand-new Nike Mercurial Vapor XI Motion Blur boots. They combine a Racer Pink / White upper with black applications to stand out.
Interestingly, it is not the first time that Falcao laced up in the Nike Mercurial Vapor boot this season as he was already spotted wearing Nike's low-cut speed boots in Fall 2016. However, he has not used the boots in an official match yet, so we have to wait for Monaco's next matches to see if the Colombian striker will complete the brand switch this time.
Do you think that the Nike Mercurial Vapor 11 boot is a fitting choice for Falcao? Should he rather wear the Nike Hypervenom, the 'Strikers Boot'? Share your thoughts in the comments below.
