The famous yellow football is set to return to la Primera this weekend in time for the winter months as has now become traditional in every leageu across Europe. It will be used until February 3, when the white ball will return.
Nike, who are the official suppliers to the Professional Football League (LFP) have dispatched the
balls to every club in the top flight this week in time to give the players some practice before it
makes its first appearance of the new campaign.
Better visibility
According to the manufacturers, the AERO HI-VIS ball makes it easier to
see and reflects the seasonal changes that will be experienced during the months when it will be
used. Just like the last few years, the yellow will be complimented by some violet detailling.
FC Barcelona used the ball in training for the first time on Friday and will use it in their
next league against Real Betis in Camp Nou on Sunday.
