Why Nike Doesn't Want Neymar
VloĆŸit
- Äas pĆidĂĄn 5. 05. 2024
- Neymar leaving Nike for Puma sparked quite a debate in the football community. Why did he leave Nike and why would Nike let him go? That debate was fueled when more high profile Nike players were leaving the brand or were seen in competitors' boots: Raheem Sterling, Sergio Ramos and even Robert Lewandowski.
Why are all those players leaving Nike? We looked into it.

Hahaha. Good one!

He left Nike because puma is paying more. Short and simple
Haha yes
not only that but he would be #1 indicator in puma unlike nike(ronaldo) or adidas(messi)

@@jamesbrown7885 nah nike best player is Michael jordan without him nike wood not be what it is today
@@francisconunes9851 yeah but they are talking football only. A kid that plays football doesn't care about Jordan but does care about Ronaldo
He had the honour of being the first football player to wear a basketball badge on his boots, what an honour
i think its more about Michael Jordan than basketball. he is one of few sports legends (tom brady, lebron, pele etc) and the fact that this crossover happened shows intent to collab in the future aswell as respecting the other sport
but obv winning a cup or smth is 100x more honorable in that sense, but u know what i mean
When basketball players wear it on their chest (pride)neymar alone wears it under his bootđą guess if it was cristianođ he gon use it to clean his assđŻ donât compare other sport legend with current (footballers)
@@CaPuGinoXD lebron? He is not near the level of the others in terms of international status
To build your brand under another brand, especially sticking an NBA player logo under your football shoes is supposed to be an honor.
this whole video i was just focused on how crazy this editing is

It was awesome..it had me watching all the way to the end

Hey groovy
As much as you mentioned RomĂĄrio as a key Brazilian player signed by Nike in the past, I'd say their breakthrough endorsement deal in the country (and arguably in the rest of the world) during the 90s was that with Ronaldo Nazario. He was Nike's MJ for football.
Totally agree, he was the one who really made boots a major factor for companies and sponsorships.
So on point
100% mercurials are as much a staple in football culture as jordanâs or kobeâs
Mid 2000s & early 2010s Robinho was that one flashy, charismatic player with flair & swagger
Even Neymar said he looked up to Robinho growing up & gets his style from him
I wasted my 10 mins for rather Simple thingâŠnot anything extraordinary in the videoâŠ.wonât be doing this againâŠ.ThankYouđđđđđ

The Hypervenom Phantoms were by no competition the most versatile shoes I owned. The best shoes ever.
Funny that Neymar didn't like them. He used the Vapor X disguised as Hypervenom.
@@ditorresyt yeah
Neymar is a great player and a bit underrated due to being a player in the same time period as Ronaldo and Messi. But Neymar's talent must not be undermined. A very talented player in his own right.
Yeah right, talented and famous by rolling on the round. just look at the video shown 8:42. Hahaha.
@@glennchua.hianbeng2440 you don't understand him
@@glennchua.hianbeng2440yea he flops but that doesnât discredit his talent lmao
@@us.er888 he doesn't do it since a long time
Neymar is very talented. That no one even argues. But he never reached his peak and the predictions that experts and people had on him. Left Barca, in his prime age to join a club which plays in a much less competitive league, while still scoring less goals than many competitors on high competitive leagues, like EPL, La Liga, Bundesliga and Serie A. He never won a World Cup, never won a Ballon D/or, which in the meantime was won even by Modric, and Griezmann was twice in the three best players on Ballon Dor list. His stats are pretty average FOR a player of his calibre on that league, and even Burak Yilmaz scored more at Lille, and he still didnt win a UCL with PSG.
So once again, we arent doubting his talent, but he never fulfilled any expectations awaited from him.
Nike letting Neymar go but having Haaland and Mbappe is genius. They're going to be the Messi/Ronaldo level of the new generation
We donât know that yet, there has been a lot of young footballers who people think they are the next big thing and end up flopping, itâs really hard to say if they are the next two big things
doubt it, remeber asenjo? He was supposed to be the next messi đ€Łđ€Łđ€Ł its to early to start thinking like this
Mbappe is a fucking World Cup golden boy, had multiple big time Champions League moments already (people forget his seasons at Monaco), 3rd top scorer in PSG history (not that big of a deal until you realize that's more than 100 goals for a 20 yr old) and we know he can lead a top team. He has NOTHING else to prove and he's barely 22 LMAO
Haaland is barely 20 and already has many goal scoring records, can dribble really well, strong, fast, deadly positioning, a ~195cm demigod etc.
Don't put Pato (always overrated, even without injuries), Bojan, Asensio on the same page as Mbappe and Haaland. These guys are much more accomplished and simplg far better. A better comparison would be Ronaldo (R9). They're all phenomenal.
@@luisguzman8025 Mbappe is world established player. No need to doubt
@theMoonrider lol they are leagues better than Messi/Ronaldo at their ages

Was so happy when I saw the number of views on this video, if anyone deserves it, it is the Atletic Interest.
Btw, I also noticed that all of the most promising talents in the world of football right now are wearing Nike, but nowadays we can see that they still haven't secured a new deal with Marcus Rashford, whom You mentioned in the video. Puma are fighting hard to get him as they see his influence both on and off the pitch
I love how you guys say Adidas, the correct pronunciation, also loved to see neymar rolling out of the screen , greetings from Brazil đ§đ·

Well, they're obviously german so they are able to pronounce german brands.
So how do other countries pronounce adidas? Is it different?

Sexual harrasment
@@krisgerzon8687 lmao
@@krisgerzon8687 Ney didn't do anything the woman is a fucking glod digger
@ first of all even you know this isn't happening for the first time....many woman have tried to sue money from footballers accusing them for rape or sexual harrasment..... Neymar also knows that all she wants is money.....so Neymar plays it intelligent and stopped co-operating with the company because he knows he wouldn't be able to do anything as in the sexual harrasment cases....it's always the females who takeover....
do you work for nike?
I think Nike is betting on the next generation as Mbappe, Haaland, Ansu Fati. With Cristiano as the older legend potrait.
The only way I see any of those players winning ballon dors is if the quality in competition drops off. Mbappe is probably the best of the bunch but you can see at PSG heâs not on neymars levels
@@SI-cd7xs It's kinda amazing for Messi and Ronaldo to set the standard for the best player and eventually as they gone, I think the standar will be lower again. For me I think it's not easy for the younger generation to step up the next level while those 2 still playing make a huge shadow. That happened to Neymar. Let's just give them some time.
@@Jojo-ue7bc yeah I think Messi and ronaldo will remain the standard because no one else will be close for a long time. I mean remember the Ronaldinho and Henry generation? ronaldo and messi just smashed the goal scoring levels made the previous legends seem mediocre by comparison.
@@SI-cd7xs Yes I agree
@@SI-cd7xs after the Ronaldo and Messi era I donât think there will be two dominant players but a large pool of then (haland, mbappe, sancho, de ligt , de jong, de jong, havertz, etc.)
From his voice u can tell that he is German đ
@Taik ⹠liegt das daran das wir deutsch sprechen oder fÀllt das auch anderen auf , hatte genau das selbe gedacht
In other words, he has a German accent?
Jo spÀtestens bei den Namen wusste man das weil er die ohne akzent ausgesprochen hat
Itâs almost like he has a German accent or something
"MARKETINGGGG" hat es fĂŒr mich klar gemacht

I find interesting how all Neymarâs personal life drama and scandals were not considered in this video,
which in my opinion played as a key element from Nike perspective to let him go so easily.
That and he's quickly falling off the ladder !! DOES not make sense to waste money on him anymore.
Kids donât like Neymar. They think heâs a selfish diver. My guess is that Nike did their research.

Love these videos so much, and Neymar is such a complex, unique player and investment so itâs interesting to see a breakdown like this!
hes getting older so his exposure will be less swapping him for haaland or mbappe is much better view

The Nike boots being worn by Neymar in the past still has a lot of impact in the present and for the future. That's why they are leading the football market at the moment. They know how to market players and attract new ones.

Nike are definitely planning for the future, they pretty much have a hold of all the best young talents in Sancho, Haaland, Mbappe etc, as well as the very young up and coming talents such as Harvey Elliot, Fati and Camavinga. This means 5-10 years down the line we may see the vast majority of top players wearing Nike boots and what has always been an oligopoly may look a lot more like a monopoly when it comes to football boot contracts (although of course itâs not as simple as that).
"Sancho" hahahahaha

I'm loving all your videos. They are so high quality and your voice and storytelling is great. Just subscribed!
âThe great Nike Exodusâ would have also been a fitting title. Great video as always! I have the creeping suspicion that voice from AEâs videos is one Iâve heard countless times on German television before. Am I mistaken or did I guess that right?
Fantastic video as always! Always interesting to see how major sports brands are developing and shaping the sports we love. Hope you have more track and field videos lined up : )
In all honesty this is one of the best videos Iâve watched on CZcams in a minute...pure pure quality and highly educational đđŸ
As a marketer who has done works for Nike, I know there are some other important factors:
A major one is the risk of controversy. While players like Neymar may have huge brand lift potential, they are also controversial. This can be very interesting for challenger brands who have a large potential growth market. Your growth can just exceed your loses and giving your brand a bit of a "rough edge" can be cool to many.
For Nike, as one of the leading brands, controversy is much more dangerous and needs to be approached with extreme caution. If you piss off 2% of your audience, that's a huge deal as they are already touching the ceiling of their potential brand awareness (as one of the most recognized brands in the world).
For clear market leaders Nike, it makes much more sense to just focus on getting more brand touchpoints and enforce and maintain the current market share.
Dude I love your voice and you style of speaking. Keep up the great work!!!
This video must have taken 8 or 9 hours to do! So many graphics but it doesnât look overdone! Youâve earned a new sub

Nope. I live in Germany and "doing his homework" on this level is default here. German love facts without emotional speaking!
The quality of your videos is amazing. Nicely done. Sehr gut.
Its clever from nike to move on from Neymar. It feels like Neymar already hit his peak performance a few years ago and is no longer the same player. Mbappe, HĂ„land, Sancho and De Jong are the stars of the future so it would be wise to put all the effort on players like that. And the still have household names mainly Cristiano Ronaldo so they have a very good range of footballers.

The Tennis sport has a great way to "classify" players by brand. Different type of Personality, I think that for a consumer it should matter which are the players that each brand has so the end consumer would get better brand support

Ronaldoâs influence and market value is crazy . No need for Neymar

This is my first time watching, but this was very informative. I like hearing "Adidas" pronounced the way it was meant to be pronounced too.
Great points and for all we know these sponsorship deals might not necessarily have significant impacts on company profitability so Nike is probably more willing to part with a few star names
To be honest, I wasn't interested in this type of video. It just auto-played.
But I'm glad it did! Awesome work! Awesome montage!
