No More Nike? Matthijs De Ligt to Rejoin Adidas After 2 Years?

Update: Matthijs De Ligt has joined Manchester United this summer. The Dutch defender could make another move, as he has been seen training in the latest Adidas F50 football boots from the Vivid Horizon Pack. This suggests he may sign with Adidas again, even though he still wears Nike Phantom cleats in matches.

Indeed, De Ligt already trained in Adidas boots almost one year ago but has continued to wear Nike cleats in matches for almost one year now.
