Rodrygo Goes, Real Madrid striker regularly cited in transfer rumors to Paris Saint-Germain or Manchester City in particular, made his change of equipment supplier official this Monday. The Brazilian leaves Nike after a decade of collaboration to sign with Adidas.
This announcement is more of a confirmation than a revelation, since the 24-year-old has already been wearing Adidas shoes since the start of the 2025-2026 season. The contract therefore formalizes a commercial relationship already visible on the land.
Ten years spent with competitor Nike
After ten years under contract with Nike, Rodrygo joined the portfolio of the German brand, which also equips his club, Real Madrid. Financial details and the duration of the agreement were not disclosed by the parties.
This type of equipment contract generally represents one of the main sources of extra-sporting income for high-level players, alongside the salary paid by their club. The Brazilian striker, trained at Santos and arrived at Real Madrid in 2019, joins the list of Adidas international ambassadors in professional football.
