Others, like Lewandowski, are switching between the Phantom Venom and Vision.

Interestingly, there are only very few former Nike Phantom Vision players who do not use the Phantom GT but many Phantom Venom player who prefer the discontinued silo.

Some players like Arturo Vidal were supposed by Nike to wear the Nike Phantom GT but prefer other silos - in Vidal's case the Nike Mercurial Superfly.

Of course, many Nike top stars made the switch to the Phantom GT unhesitatingly - e.g. Kai Havertz, Lautaro Martínez, Sergio Busquets, Kevin De Bruyne and Harry Kane.
