Nike have confirmed that Real Madrid super star Cristiano Ronaldo will don a pair of newly-revealed special edition CR7 Mercurial Campeoes boots for this year’s FIFA Confederations Cup.
The Portugal captain has been given the unique design by Nike who according to Daily Mail say the boots have been created as a celebration of Ronaldo’s national pride and success at Euro 2016.
The one-of-a-kind set are not available for retail and the four-time Ballon d’Or winner will be hoping they help fire him to ever greater heights for his country. Ronaldo’s boots are predominantly red and have an ankle fitted support with the iconic Nike tick in gold and a mini Portugal flag on the back.
The Confederations Cup begins in Russia later this month and features Portugal alongside the likes of Germany, Mexico and Australia. The Real Madrid hot shot and his national team-mates begin their Confederations Cup campaign on June 18 against Mexico.
The 32-year old who has enjoyed another phenomenal season for Los Blancos scored a brace as he captained Portugal to victory in their latest World Cup qualifier against Latvia.
Having redefined his role as a No 9 for Real this season, the scoring touch has remained and at times it seems he could play in clogs and still find the target.
