The ball, predominantly white, is adorned with blue star-shaped panels outlined by a vibrant yellow border. The adidas logo also appears in a distinctive blue color, completing a palette that evokes a starry night.
However, the most striking feature of this new design lies in its 12 stellar panels. Each of these panels features a different pattern, inspired by the shapes of the 12 zodiac signs or constellations.
This ingenious concept seeks to unite the mysticism of the universe with the magic of football, promising to add a new visual dimension to every match in the Champions League group stage.
