adidas have unveiled the official match balls for the 2025/26 UEFA Champions League tournaments, for both the men’s and women’s competitions, bringing together breathtaking design and cutting-edge technology.

Both balls are inspired by the skies above the host cities of the respective finals, with the men’s ball drawing on the night sky above Budapest. Blue stars outlined in gold shimmer across the surface, complemented by hand-drawn zodiac symbols that represent heroism and destiny.

The women’s ball takes cues from Oslo’s northern skies, incorporating dark purple hexagons between the stars, overlaid with neon green gradients, and luminous pink and white highlights, evoking the beauty of the aurora borealis.

Technical innovations ensure these aren’t just beautiful – they’re built for performance.

Both balls feature the PRISMA surface with a debossed pattern for better swerve and precision, a CTR-CORE interior tuned for consistent control, a textured outer coating for superior grip, and seamless, thermally bonded construction.

With designs that celebrate the heavens above and the heroes on the pitch, adidas’ Champions League balls for 2025/26 combine spectacle and performance in a way only the European game can inspire.
