Umtiti Confirms Puma Deal
Barcelona and France defender Samuel Umtiti just confirmed he's joined Puma.
Umtiti was previously sponsored by Nike, wearing both the Magista Obra II and Phantom Vision, but lately started lacing up in blackout Puma cleats as he returned from a long time out with injury.

As we can see in the announcement and as expected after the blackouts, Umtiti will wear the boots from the Puma Future silo.
Umtiti joins a long list of high-profile players including his team-mate Luis Suarez, Jan Oblak and David Silva, who have all signed deals with Puma over the last few months. Even more players are set to follow in the near future.
Puma were also able to secure sponsorships with Manchester City and Valencia for next season, with Atlético rumored to be following in 2020.
