Ep. 51: Why Corteiz and Nike Is a Good Thing for Football

Corteiz and Nike just linked up again to drop one of the most iconic campaign films in a minute, bringing together some of the most influential ballers and cultural tastemakers past and present. We break down the significance of this moment and why it showcases that football’s cultural impact is bigger than ever before. We also ask whether the Ballon d’Or is fit for purpose following a controversial 2024 awards night, and pay tribute to Nottingham Forest baller Ola Aina. ‘The Future of Football’ is a podcast from VERSUS bringing you closer to the people, the stories and the ideas shaping the future of the game we love.
