Ulysses, the new symbol of the American brand / Big game: Bayern star replaces Mbappe

The Bayern Munich star replaces Kylian Mbappe as the main face of the Nike sports brand.

According to "Sports Three", Nike has reached a sponsorship deal with Michael Olisse, the 24-year-old star of Bayern Munich, to make him one of the main faces of its soccer stocks product line.

According to the report of Footy Headlines website, this French winger has signed a million dollar contract with this American brand, which is aiming to fill the vacancy of Kylian Mbappe. The Real Madrid striker recently surprised everyone by leaving the Nike brand and joining the Swiss company "AN".

The signing of Michael Ulysse is a very meaningful move, as he has a very special relationship with his shoes. To date, the French international has turned down offers from major brands to maintain the freedom to choose his football boots.

Michael Ulysse's first choice was the Nike Hypernum Phantom 3 model, which has been discontinued since 2019, and he procured and received pairs of this model over the internet and from various parts of the world. In some cases, Michael Ulysse even asked artists to customize and personalize the design of these shoes before using them in training and competitions.

Nike's investment will go beyond a simple business deal. Again, according to Death Headlines, the American company plans to revive the iconic Hypernom line in 2027 with Michael Ulysses as the star and main character, while production of the Phantom series will cease entirely.

This collection, which was first introduced in 2013 and was dedicated to Neymar at that time, can experience its second life with the presence of this Bayern Munich star, and Michael Ulysses will become the new symbol of Nike in international football.
