Ronaldo’s Sudden Swoop for Non-Nike Trainers Sparks Rift Rumors
Cristiano Ronaldo has left fans stunned once again, this time by donning a pair of sports trainers that aren’t from his long-time sponsor, Nike. The five-time Ballon d’Or winner has been spotted wearing Asics trainers in a recent Instagram post, and eagle-eyed followers have now caught him sporting shoes from relatively unknown brand Feethit.
The Portuguese superstar has been with Nike for over 20 years, and his partnership with the sportswear giant has seen him earn a reported £147 million per year. As part of his deal, Ronaldo typically only wears Nike-branded gear, especially when it comes to footwear. However, it seems the 39-year-old has decided to shake things up.
The latest development has sparked rumors of a rift between Ronaldo and Nike, with some speculating that the partnership may be coming to an end soon. Footy Headlines reported that Ronaldo’s son, Cristiano Jr, faced backlash in 2022 after wearing Adidas products, and a furious Ronaldo responded by saying his son "wears what he wants, not what you want."
The question on everyone’s mind is: what’s behind Ronaldo’s sudden change of heart? Has he grown tired of the Nike deal, or is this simply a one-off mistake? One thing is certain – the football world is watching with bated breath to see how this situation unfolds.
