Adidas stands as one of the most dominant brands in global soccer.
From match-day kits to footballs, tracksuits to cleats, and even shin guards and socks, the German manufacturer supplies nearly everything players and supporters could ever require for the planet's most beloved sport.
Beyond equipment, adidas backs some of the sport's biggest stars with generous sponsorship deals, allowing athletes to represent the brand both on the pitch and in everyday life.
Here, we count down 10 of the top players currently under adidas sponsorship in 2026, listed in no specific order.
1. Lionel Messi
Lionel Messi is the crown jewel of adidas' roster.
Ever since parting ways with Nike back in 2004, the Argentine icon and the German sportswear giant have evolved side by side, launching countless apparel lines, signature cleats—including the Nemeziz and X collections—and much more, as he solidified his legacy as the greatest footballer to ever play the game.
Elevated to a lifetime deal in 2017, Messi's arrangement with adidas features a profit-sharing clause, generating him substantial earnings annually.
2. Lamine Yamal
The new face of world soccer, Lamine Yamal, was secured by adidas in February 2024, with the young Spaniard opting for the brand over Nike—mirroring the path taken by his idol, Messi.
Since that signing, adidas has unveiled several signature boot designs for the Barcelona sensation—including pink and purple F50 Elites—along with a dedicated clothing line featuring his own personal logo.
3. Jude Bellingham
Adidas brought Jude Bellingham on board in 2022, a full year ahead of his headline-grabbing transfer from Borussia Dortmund to Real Madrid.
In the time since, the sportswear powerhouse has rolled out a series of signature products, including his own Predator Elite boots and a bespoke loungewear collection, all incorporating Bellingham's distinctive personal logo.
4. Mohamed Salah
Having represented adidas for the majority of his professional career, Mohamed Salah has accumulated a collection of specially crafted signature boots, including the AdiZero and X Speedflow MS.1 models.
He has also collaborated with the brand on initiatives aimed at elevating and transforming the global image of hijabi athletes.
5. Declan Rice
Declan Rice has been aligned with adidas since his formative years, well before his landmark transfer from West Ham United to Arsenal in 2023.
Throughout his career, the midfielder has not only worn signature COPA boots—styled in red and white to complement Arsenal's colors—but has also appeared in the brand's streetwear campaigns, including headlining the adidas SPZL AW25 collection.
6. Son Heung-min
Son Heung-min may be entering the final chapter of his playing days, yet he continues to be the standout figure in Asian soccer—acting as the ambassador for both the sport and adidas throughout the region.
The South Korean captain has maintained his partnership with adidas for more than 15 years, having worn the brand's products since his early career in Germany with Hamburger SV.
7. Pedri
Pedri features some of the most inventive and distinctive personalized details on his adidas boots.
His Predator cleats carry a custom wordmark reading "PREDRI SINCE 2002," paired with a banana emoji that nods to his nickname, his roots, and his role as a brand ambassador for Canary Islands Bananas.
Alongside his adidas deal, Pedri also serves as an ambassador for Decathlon.
8. Raphinha
In July 2024, Barcelona's Brazilian wide man Raphinha officially became an adidas brand ambassador.
He regularly wears the adidas Predator boots and has appeared in campaigns for the 2025 adidas x Wales Bonner collection, as well as promoting the limited-edition UFL Predator "Cursebreaker" boot.
9. Rodrygo
Raphinha's Brazil international teammate Rodrygo also made the switch to adidas, departing Nike in late 2025 to ink a deal with the German brand.
The move brought an end to a decade-long relationship with Nike, one that had started when Rodrygo was still a young boy.
10. Scott McTominay
An adidas athlete since his youth and having renewed his contract in 2024, Scott McTominay's remarkable performances in World Cup qualifying helped guide Scotland back to the tournament for the first time since 1998.
His unforgettable overhead kick in a 4–2 win over Denmark clinched Scotland's place at the finals, and he recently marked the occasion with adidas by posing in front of a massive mural depicting the goal in Glasgow, dressed head to toe in adidas gear, including Scotland's 2026 World Cup away strip.
