Was just about it to comment this haha

Ronaldo (R9) was the first football player with a lifetime Nike deal.

Isnt Steph the face of underarmour?

@@sidhantraghuvanshi1838 yeah but that isn’t Nike/adidas

The odds

Really shows how much impact a single athlete can have 🤔

Adidas could of had Michael Jordan

​@@Onairuk Wrong it was Converse that could have had Michael Jordan.

​@@SuperiorRecapsCorrecting the comment substance and grammar in one hit, touché

@@SuperiorRecaps its both, in the book Driven From Within MJ said he went to adidas too but they didnt see him worthy of a signature line

It still wouldn’t have happened. Just because they’re signed to the same brand doesn’t mean they’d be doing commercials together. To do that you need both players to agree. At best they’d record separately and then edit them together. But as time has shown one of the two or possibly both do not want to do commercials together. Whether it’s competitiveness or agents interfering, who knows. My guess is Messi doesn’t like Ronaldo for all the shots Ronaldo has taken over the years. I think Messi just stays professional but deep down knows Ronaldo is a fake arrogant person.

@@erko78 So you guess all this?

@@erko78 Never have I seen Ronaldo actually disrespect Messi. Ronaldo says that he is best in the world, and that is a midset to keep him moving. You are simply a person who does not like him. Messi and Ronaldo respect each other. And where did you get the idea that they do not want to do commercials together? They would certainly do it if they were signed with the same brands. Grow up

​@@erko78 you are definitely no football fan. I have never in my 13 years of being a football fan ever heard Ronaldo direspeting Messi. He has repect and so as Messi. You are probably a very young fella who is only a social media football fan and does not know a poop bout football. But have a nice day 😊

@@mystrodelin643 He has on several occasions in various interviews, you should use your brain before correcting others.

Manchester United wore Nike when Ronaldo was there the first time. Pretty sure Sporting and Al Nassr didn't wear Adidas either

Messi is going to wear Adidas with Inter Miami

It has 620K subscribers? What do you mean it hasnt blown up yet?

@@rxy8541 620k followers is a lot dont get me wrong and the amount of views they get is crazy which is why it's surprising that they haven't cracked a million subs yet. this channel has been dishing out top notch content for more or less 3 years now. I've seen plenty of channels that have been around the same period and have over a million subscribers at least.

We really appreciate this! Plenty more growing to do 🙂

Same bro love this page, the voice is so relaxing as well 😂

It will blow when the poor nations that are football crazy can afford to watch KZfaq. KZfaq (longer videos) is currently or the Internet for that matter is still the reserve for the rich in poor countries. Plus especially English is dominated by American English whereas there's over 2 Billion British L2 speakers over the world waiting to get in. In 20 years time the demographics will shift.

messi and kanye

Yeah in a speaker and louder

That would be an understatement

@@sigfigronathr7 and drake on nike is a better combo

​@@easymoneypromotions Never

Messi totally depend on his performance.. He just play fottballer with his heart.. No other goal.. And everything come automatically

couldnt have said it any better

@Mai F. Ali laugh at your mom

face of football, he's a Fraud.

😂

@@streamingera4102 penaldog without world cup hahaha

Unrecognisable in us also 😅😂

🤣🤣

Who would that be cause GOATNALDO IS with Nike

@@amda7882 what does goat even mean nowadays....... never reaching world cup finals?

​@@CasualGamingEnthusiastit football only addias matter 😂😂 nike have lebron an jordan there revenue off those 2 alone> addias

adidas fit wider feet better so i definitely wouldnt say non existent

i dont think so. Messi hasnt been able to carry an adidas boot

Both players played with teams that were sponsored by the other brand. Expect their national teams

@@mountaindew3201 ofc the brands would pay an arm and a leg to have one of club/ country to be under the same sponsor. Country is easier as they dont change nationalities

@@Tsangass and international teams almost never change their sponsors unlike league teams. In the end of the day both brands got to sell many of. It’s players shorts if you think about it.

Thank you! 🙌

Kanye helped a LOT on the high end but he got the vaccine and lost his mind. Nike is still number 1 globally in sporting apparel, equipment and pretty much everything but futbol cleats. Nike’s margins are ridiculous.

No Messi didn't do much for Addidas Addidas didn't go for great players They went for great teams like man United ,Real Madrid Thts the point which people r forgetting

also imagine losing the best shooter of all time in the NBA because you forgot to change the name in presentation slide.

@@jianh1989more like forgetting his name during an interview lol

Pelé wore Puma

​@@mainsmainPelé isn't greatest he is overrated. Garrincha was better than him.

​@@mdzaidshaikh1863 no sir you are totally wrong

Took a little break to recharge 🔋

@@AthleticInterest Understood. You're always putting out great content. The mashup of sports/business/culture always interest. Something I haven't seen that maybe you can do that seems interesting is (I'm American) the difference in contract structures between American sports and the rest of the world (obviously primarily football (soccer) ). European leagues can spend untethered whereas in different U.S. leagues' they're put on a salary cap. Why? Anyway, take care and Cheers!! 🍺🎮🎧

We already had the video finished and uploaded when the news broke 😅

@@AthleticInterest could you please do a video about image rights comparison in American sports with European sports

Thanks for being with us! 😀

Thank you! 😄

He’s signed with nike

@@YouBasket Yeah, I’m aware.

Most of footballers nowdays wages are waaay higher mostly thanks to Messi and Ronaldo, they all think they are them but in reality they aren't, so i don't know in wich point would be worth it to give these modern stars more money than Messi and Ronaldo ever asked for

They got Bellingham

What shady stuff means?

source? "trust me bro"

​@@ahmadmaulanai8164 slavery

we need source

you're showing yourself as Argentine towards this topic is irrelevant

U r smart just like me U know the game

Thank you! We’re glad you enjoyed it 😀

That is a nice target to aim for! 📈

@@AthleticInterest go for it we with u all the way

We'll wait for the Boom! 😉 💥

Messi is a no-nonsense person. He doesn't have that celeb fanfare. He's just so chill and loves to play football. That's what I love about him. No cockiness as well that you see in most athletes.

Messi doesn't care about all that hollywood diva stuff, he just plays football, and i woulnd't be surprised if the real reason why he left Nike is because he liked Adidas boots better, he allows himself to actually like stuff and not think about money all the time

Wondering how much nike is paying them for all the advertising they do for them

Really glad you enjoyed it! 🙂

Because its a waste nike knowns india is poor an football is poor man sport thats why nike care more about basketball

Thank you for watching!

Mbappe and Halland

You’re very welcome 🙂

Very grateful as always 😉

Very kind! Thanks Eaglet!

@Mai F. Ali oh sorry Let your tears bring some rain in saudi where your camel is playing kid

@Mai F. Ali damn ur English is almost as bad as Ronaldo in the Kebab league

Puma, maybe? Neymar (which isn't as relevant now, but still is one of the world's top players) has been with Puma for a while after his fallout with Nike, which was his sponsor for a pretty long time too. Haaland has been experimenting different brands and he's with Puma too.

Lionel messi is the greatest athlete ever in any sports you jungly person.

@@nishant54 that's the joke 🤦‍♂

​@@nishant54lebron clears easily u clown

Nike doesn't care they have lebron the income he brings alone is insane

Interesting question! The difference between football and other sports such as basketball involve different vantage points as a fan. In football, you support the club and then the players who play for that club. That also means that there are greater rivalries, so it's unlikely that fans would buy a signature shoe of the rival club's best player. That's why most brands go for silos based around playing styles instead of signature cleats. So you have different categories, for example the cleats of fast attackers, creative midfielders or tough fullbacks. And those categories usually have one superstar promoting it, like CR7 and the Nike Mercurial. But you make a good point because in recent years it's shifting more and more towards a superstar economy, where players seem to become more important for fans than clubs. So it'd be interesting to see what would happen if Nike or Adidas actually launched a signature shoe based on one player. I don't think they will do it though because it means giving away a lot of independence and business is going well as it is right now.

@@AthleticInterest Interesting thanks for the reply! As a advertising person and big sports fan this channel gives great insight!

Not nearly the equivalent boy jordan way more revenue
