Griezmann has made a change from the Puma Ultra to Decathlon's new blackout boots, potentially indicating that he may be joining the brand, as per rumours. The blackout boots he's now wearing are the Decathlon CLR boots, which are from Decathlon's speed shoe range. Should Griezmann join Decathlon, he might have the opportunity to become an ambassador for this particular line of shoes.

Decathlon has recently finalized many significant partnership deals that includes Ligue 1 ball and another for the Europa League and the upcoming Conference League.

Decathlon currently offers two top-tier football boot collections - the Viralto IV and the CLR Elite, both of which are priced affordably at 80 euros.

End of the Road for Puma and Griezmann 

According to reports from Foot Mercato, Antoine Griezmann is expected to part ways with Puma, his boot supplier since 2010. Atletico Madrid star looks set to end his ties with Puma by the end of the season. It is yet to be confirmed whether the Atletico Madrid forward will sign a new contract with another sports brand.

The rumor of Griezmann wanting to leave Puma is surprising, considering he is one of the elite ambassadors of Puma Ultra boot, the brand's main speed silo. Griezmann has been associated with Puma for over 14 years (since 2010) and has been a loyal figure since his early days as a player.

Kipsta, the French sports brand owned by Decathlon, has revealed that it will be providing gear for a prominent French international footballer. Antoine Griezmann may join Decathlon as soon as next season.

The potential signing of a player like Antoine Griezmann could greatly benefit Kipsta, enabling them to make a strategic entry into the football boot market, similar to how Skechers partnered with Harry Kane.
