The Premier League closes the 2019-20 season with a new match ball

As the Premier League transitions to the final stages of the 2019-20 season, Nike will debut its latest match ball: The Premier League “Tunnel Vision” Merlin.

Incorporating Nike Aerowtrac technology, the ball is engineered to provide an accurate and stable flight by helping ensure a steady flow of air across the ball no matter what speed it is moving at. The “Tunnel Vision” design highlights the balance of clarity and disorder with bright orange circles amid a flurry of graphics. This underscores players’ ability to focus on one task while ignoring everything else.

One of the panels features the prized Premier League trophy, reminding each team of the ultimate end-of-season goal.

The Premier League “Tunnel Vision” Merlin will make its debut during the Chelsea vs Tottenham Hotspur fixture February 22. The ball is available February 17 on nike.com
