Champions League Pack? Son Trains in Upcoming Adidas X Speedportal Colourway
Tottenham's Son Heung-Min has been spotted training in the upcoming colourway of the Adidas X Speedportal ahead of Spurs' Champions League clash with Marseille.
Son Trains in New Colourway of Adidas X Speedportal
The Korean striker has given us our first real look at the new colourway, confirming our previous leak. The upper is largely metallic silver while the heel and soleplate are black. Multicolour flashes are applied to the stripes on the forefoot, heel and instep.
These vibrant colours and the dizzying effect used on them are also present on the Adidas 22-23 Champions League matchball, a likely indicator that this colourway of the Adidas X Speedportal will form part of a 22-23 Champions League boot pack.
