Fútbol Emotion Boot Spotting #6

Premier League and Champions League action has once again thrown up some unexpected footwear choices. From a North London derby surprise to a Brazilian’s short-lived switch, this edition of Boot Spotting rounds up the most notable boots spotted on the pitch in recent matchdays.

Arsenal’s Spanish full-back is usually associated with the Nike Mercurial Vapor range, so his choice in the latest North London derby against Tottenham Hotspur raised eyebrows. Bellerín wore the Nike Tiempo Premier II SG-Pro Anti-Clog, a boot praised for its balance of comfort and ball control. The colourway also perfectly complemented Arsenal’s home kit.

The Lille OSC and United States attacker has been spotted in recent weeks wearing what appears to be a next-generation New Balance Tekela boot – both in training and in official matches. The upper features a completely redesigned structure with 3D grip elements visible in the material. A vibrant red prototype colour has given a clearer view of the changes ahead of the official launch.

Sergio Ramos has become a regular feature in this series, as negotiations between the Real Madrid captain and his long‑time sponsor have not yet reached a conclusion. After wearing several different brands in training, Ramos stepped onto the pitch for a Champions League match against – you guessed it – wearing adidas Copa 20.1s from the Precision to Blur Pack. The German brand’s three stripes appeared in a blackout version, adding to the intrigue.

Neymar’s move to Puma under the banner “The King is Back” initially saw him wearing Puma King boots, but that phase was short-lived. After several weeks training in a Future prototype, the Brazilian star wore Puma’s official new Future Z boots in a Champions League match against İstanbul Başakşehir FK. The key change from previous models is the removal of the NetFit system in favour of a strap across the midfoot, delivering a compressive fit.
