Arsenal Football
Club and official club partner PUMA have unveiled a world first - the
Left-Footed evoPOWER Football.
Story Courtesy of Arsenal Football Club: Designed
exclusively for Arsenal, the Left-Footed evoPOWER Football was created to
increase the accuracy, power and precision of a left-footed player.
In
a game currently dominated by right-footed players and right-footed equipment,
the club felt it was crucial to develop kit specifically for their numerous
left or two-footed players.
Arsenal
approached PUMA to see if they might be able to help and in their first season
with the club, they have done just that.
Santi Cazorla, Mesut Ozil, Nacho Monreal and Hector
Bellerin were the first players to test the new ball and the results were
incredible. After trying the ball for the first time, two-footed player Cazorla
had just one thing to say: “It’s unbelievable!” Right-footed player Bellerin
said: “It’s a bit tricky to use on your right foot but it instantly improved my
left foot.”
Speaking
about the launch, Keith Woods, PUMA’s senior product line manager for teamsport
accessories, said: “This football will not only improve the overall game of
left and two-footed players, it is also the perfect training aid for the
right-footed player’s weaker left-foot. A left-footed player finally has the
benefits that a right-footed player has always had with footballs to date.”
The
new Left-Footed evoPOWER Football will be available exclusively at
Arsenal’s official online store, Arsenaldirect.com soon…
