Neymar Jr Wears Old-Gen Blackout Puma Future Ultimate Boots - Hinting He's Leaving Puma?
- Neymar's Boots: Neymar wore old-generation, blacked-out Puma boots, suggesting his Puma contract might be ending.
- Puma's Plans: Puma has planned Neymar signature releases, but they could be canceled if the relationship sours.
- Nike Precedent: Neymar's Nike signature line was canceled when he switched to Puma in 2020.
Returning to his old club, Santos, Neymar surprisingly wore old-gen blackout Puma Ultimate boots instead of the current generation Puma Future 8 boots. Is this a sign that the relationship between Puma and Neymar is coming to an end?
Is the relationship between Neymar and Puma in trouble?
Usually, a player wearing blackout boots is indicating that his contract with the brand that supplies his boots is about to expire and that he is looking for a new brand.
This makes even more sense as Neymar is currently Puma's top ambassador and Puma wouldn't want him wearing blackout boots, let alone the old generation of Future Ultimate boots.
According to exclusive information from Footy Headlines, Puma has plans to release signature boots and accompanying lifestyle collections for Neymar from now until the end of the year. However, if there is a problem in the relationship between the two, all these plans could be canceled.
Just like when Neymar left Nike to sign with Puma in 2020, all products in the Nike Neymar 2021 signature collection have been canceled.
Do you think Neymar and Puma will end their partnership after almost 5 years? Comment below.
