MADRID, 20 Dic. (EUROPA PRESS) –
FC Barcelona forward Ferrán Torres has joined the ‘family’ of the Under Armor sports brand, as part of the American firm’s commitment to incorporating young elite footballers in key markets such as Spain and the United Kingdom.
The 24-year-old Blaugrana striker has scored four goals for FC Barcelona since his return from injury in November, as the team leads LaLiga EA Sports and occupies second place in the Champions League.
The mentality of ‘The Shark’ fits with the values of the Under Armor brand. Spain is a rapidly growing market for Under Armour, and Ferrán Torres will play a key role in the development of the brand in the coming years.
Torres joins other Barça players who are brand ambassadors such as Fermín López and Marc Casadó, as well as figures such as Pedro Porro, from Tottenham FC, and Real Madrid’s German international defender Antonio Rüdiger.
Torres will play in Under Armour’s Shadow Elite 2 boots, designed for players who need speed and agility, ideal for his powerful attacking style. Off the field, you’ll sport the brand’s latest innovations in sports and casual wear, such as the Unstoppable collection.
“Joining a sports brand as iconic as Under Armour, which works to make athletes better, is an incredible step for me. I hope to grow in my career alongside them, as they continue to grow in football and in Spain,” commented Torres. .
Under Armor continues to strengthen its presence in football, with strategic alliances with young promises and established stars in Europe. In addition, the brand continues to innovate with avant-garde design products such as the Shadow Elite 2 and Magnetico Elite 4 boots.
Along with its footwear, Under Armor offers a line of technical and stylish soccer-focused apparel, including the Challenger and Terrace collections, ensuring players can perform at their best both on and off the field.
