Cristiano Ronaldo has always been a Nike athlete. The Portuguese signed with Nike in 2003 and was the face of the brand for many years. He has donned almost 70 shoe models of the company. However, recently Ronaldo was seen wearing Adidas gear in a pre-season friendly against Celta Vigo.
The superstar was seen donning Adidas shin pads as he booted up for Al Nassr against Celta Vigo. This can be seen as a significant breach of contract by Nike chiefs. Ronaldo could face grave consequences from its sponsor for being seen in rivals’ gear. Nike will certainly not drop their star man over this instance but can act on this.
Ronaldo’s contract with Nike could be affected as well. Although he has a lifetime Nike contract, which was signed off by the parties in 2016- some amount of monetary punishment could be imposed on Ronaldo. Ronaldo’s lifetime contract is rumored to be around $1 Billion, and would not be majorly affected though.
Cristiano also faced criticism last year as his son, Cristiano Jr. was spotted in Adidas gear. The young one was seen wearing Yeezys which drew flak from some people. However, an agitated Ronaldo replied “He wears what he wants. Not what you want.”, as he was not happy with the unnecessary criticism of his son.

Cristiano’s water brand Ursu set to sponsor football tournament in Portugal
Ursu Water is Cristiano Ronaldo’s alkaline beverage brand. It is the striker’s personal belief in the importance of water that has driven him to create the brand. The brand is creating its place in the market. Ronaldo himself is spearheading the campaigning for the Brand.
Ursu now will be sponsoring a big football tournament in Portugal. The Brand is set to host a preseason tournament in Portugal. The company posted about it on its Instagram. The post said, “URSU is the official water of the Algarve International Trophy 2023, which brings together the teams of Al Nassr FC (Saudi Arabia), Celta de Vigo (Spain) and Sport Lisboa e Benfica (Portugal), from July 17 to 21 at the Algarve Stadium.”
Thus Ronaldo’s own company will be sponsoring his team, Al Nassr as well. This event is going down in his native Portugal. Ronaldo is bringing his connections to use, it can be seen. Ursu Brand seems to be progressing as Ronaldo continues pulling strings for his venture.
