Atlético and the NFL: A Mattress Fusion with American Flavor
Atlético de Madrid is eagerly preparing for the Club World Cup, a tournament that promises great excitement on American soil. Nike, the club’s official sponsor, wanted to celebrate this event with a nod to the king of sports in the United States: American football.
In an ingenious collaboration with the NFL, a line of commemorative jerseys has been designed that merges Mattress passion with American style. This initiative, which also involves other major European clubs, reflects the growing importance of Atlético within the Nike family.
The recent renewal of the sponsorship agreement until 2035, which doubles the club’s annual revenue, consolidates Atleti as one of the brand’s favorite teams worldwide. The jerseys, with a design reminiscent of NFL kits, feature white bases, large numbers and distinctive details from the American football league.
Although the predominant white color in the leaked image has generated some controversy among fans, the complete collection is expected to offer other options and surprises.
This collaboration with the NFL is not only a tribute to the Club World Cup, but also a prelude to the 2026 FIFA World Cup, which will be held in the United States, Canada and Mexico. Undoubtedly, an initiative that brings Atlético de Madrid even closer to the American public and celebrates the passion for sports in all its forms.
