Rumours heard by Footy Headlines suggest that Nike is planning a special Mercurial release for 2026, centred around the iconic Mercurial Vapor Superfly 1 in a Metallic Gold Star and White colourway. The boot is said to reference the original gold CR7 Mercurial era, reworking one of Nike Football’s most recognisable silhouettes more than 15 years on.
