adidas presented "Nativo", the new MLS ball

The return of the Major League Soccer, that will see the first pre-season games starting from early February, is right behind the corner. After Sebastian Giovinco’s Toronto FC successful campaign - they were last season’s champions - the franchises of the American League will be back on the pitch, including the last one arrived in the tournament, the Los Angeles FC. And in the first pre-season games there will already be the new football, officially presented today by adidas Football.

Its name is Nativo and, as it can be foreseen in the pics, it’s freely inspired (just the same) to the Telstar that adidas realized for the Russia World Cup next summer. So, it’s the most advanced football in the world right now, and for the occasion it received a nice makeover, adapting it for the American championship. The Nativo takes the colors from the American flag, represented by a pixel pattern. And just like NBA’s Spalding, it has commissioner Dan Garber’s signature on it. The Major League Soccer is ready to be back.
