The Premier League and Nike have taken a very brave step, with the release of their new football for the forthcoming season.
The Nike Ordem 3 is primarily red, with a white stripe. The Premier League famously changed footballs midway through the season, from white to yellow to cope with the Winter months.
There should be no reason why that happens now. Despite the billions the Premier League receive in television rights, maybe the introduction of the Ordem 3 is a cost saving measure.
