Adidas has unveiled a new pair of F50 football boots designed to honour Liverpool star Mohamed Salah.
The special-edition boots have been released ahead of the Africa Cup of Nations and has been specially made as a bespoke F50 Elite FG to celebrate Mohamed Salah’s lasting impact in both club and international football, as per GOAL.
Adidas designed it to celebrate him as a global icon, incorporating Egyptian-inspired elements including white for the base, sand-coloured details for deserts and hieroglyphic motifs reflecting Egypt’s ancient heritage.
The F50 Salah boot uses gold accents and metallic Adidas stripes to create a prestigious look with additional logos on the forefoot and tongue.
The release of the F50 Salah boots comes during a recent challenging period in Mohamed Salah’s Liverpool career.
The 33-year-old forward was previously left out of Liverpool’s squad for their midweek Champions League win against Inter Milan after giving a fiery interview.
Salah has publicly expressed frustration after being benched for three consecutive Premier League matches, including the dramatic 3-3 draw with Leeds.
However, all the tensions seemed to ease when he returned to the starting lineup against Brighton and made an immediate impact by assisting a goal, which undoubtedly highlighted his crucial role for Liverpool.
