Kylian Mbappé Switches to Next-Gen Nike Mercurial For Euro 2024 Knockout Stage

Kylian Mbappe has hit the training field ahead of the knockout round, sporting the latest Nike Mercurial Superfly 10 boots instead of the Nike Mercurial Superfly 9.

The next-generation Nike Mercurial Superfly 10 and Vapor 16 soccer cleats will be available to buy from 3 July 2024, so it makes much sense that Mbappe changes to them. However, it is still odd that he is both sporting the old and new-gen Mercurials at the same tournament.

In fact, Puma has done a similar move, but with even more players. Footballers like Depay and Andrich are sporting the next-generation Puma Ultra 5 soccer cleats in the brand-new launch colorway. Before, Puma even provided them with camouflaged boots - the old design with the new tech of the next-generation boots.
