The UEFA Champions League Final Budapest 2026 Official Match Ball is here!

Adidas has unveiled the new UEFA Champions League final ball, inspired by its host city of Budapest. Its base features different shades of purple, adorned with the neon graphics of the lion and the gryphon. The snow-white stars highlight its identity as part of the most prestigious European club tournament.

The ball will make its debut during the Knockout round play-off, kicking off on Tuesday, February 17th. In my opinion, the main storylines at that stage of the tournament are:

🌟 Will the Bodø/Glimt football fairytale continue in the Round of 16?

🗼 Are Monaco capable of reaching the Round of 16 with PSG standing in their way?

👑 Can the Special One find success in yet another battle with Real Madrid?

Coming soon…
