Manchester United and Argentina defender Lisandro Martinez is on the verge of becoming an Adidas athlete, despite wearing Nike throughout his career to date.
Martinez came on as a 59th minute substitute in Argentina’s World Cup opener against Saudi Arabia, which ended in a 2-1 defeat, and he could be seen wearing a pair of Adidas X Speedportal boots, as per Footy Headlines.
The boots were released as part of the Al Rihla World Cup pack.
From this, it’s safe to assume that Martinez will under contract at Adidas sooner rather than later.
Manchester United and Argentina kits are manufactured by Adidas, so it makes sense for all parties involved – bar Nike who are the only ones to miss out on a top athlete.
