Puma to Be Leading Ball Maker in Europe's Top Leagues
- Puma's European Dominance: Puma will become Europe's leading official ball supplier, providing match balls to the Premier League, La Liga, and Serie A starting in the 2025-26 season.
- Puma's Global Rise: With recent deals in Europe, the Americas and Africa, Puma is on the verge of becoming the world's leading official ball maker.
- Nike's Decline: Nike will lose its prominent position in the football ball market, while Adidas will continue supplying the Champions League and World Cup.
Puma is set to become Europe's leading official ball maker, supplying balls to three of Europe's top five football leagues from the 2025-26 season, including the Premier League, La Liga and Serie A.
Puma to Make Balls for the Premier League, Serie a and La Liga From the 25-26 Season
The deal to supply the ball to the Premier League from the 25-26 season will officially make Puma the leading ball supplier in Europe.
All three leagues, La Liga, Serie A and the Premier League, were supplied with balls by Nike prior to the 2019-20 season. Puma has since reached agreements to supply balls to La Liga from the 19-20 season, Serie A from the 22-23 season and the upcoming Premier League from the 25-26 season.
In Europe, Puma also has ball supply agreements with England's EFL, Liga F (Spain's Women's first division), Portugal's Liga Portugal, and Scotland's Professional League.
Not only in Europe, but with recent deals in the Americas and Africa, Puma is on the verge of becoming the world's leading official ball maker.
Adidas will continue to make the official match balls for the two most important competitions - the Champions League and the World Cup. Nike, on the other hand, will have virtually no important deal left.
