adidas is proud to announce that today (Tuesday 16 March) Paul Pogba, the world’s most in demand footballer, has chosen to sign a long term partnership with the world’s biggest football brand.

 Explaining why he chose adidas, Paul Pogba said:

“This is the first sponsor contract I’ve signed and it’s a very important decision for me. I chose adidas because we have shared passions and values. adidas has the same vibe as I do, on and off the pitch”.

“I love music, dance and fashion but my biggest passion is football and I needed a brand that would give me the space to express myself and explore new frontiers. In adidas I found a partner with the same goals as me.”

 Continuing on his extraordinary journey from the streets to superstar status, Pogba has already won three Italian league titles and three domestic cup trophies, the 2013 FIFA U20 World Cup, the FIFA World Cup Best Young Player award in 2014 and was named in the 2015 FIFPro World XI. He joins the brand’s global roster of football talent, which includes Leo Messi, James Rodriguez, Mesut Ozil, Luis Suarez and Gareth Bale.

 adidas has also revealed that his first boot – co-created by the player and the brand – will be an exclusive ACE 16+ PURECONTROL model, in Pogba’s favourite black and gold colours. Only a small number of pairs of the special boot will be produced and given exclusively to the player.
