Memphis Depay unveils custom boots commemorating Palmeiras rivalry

Dutch striker Memphis Depay has showcased a pair of exclusive, custom-designed football boots that commemorate a controversial moment from his time with Corinthians. The footwear features an illustration engraved on the leather depicting Depay balancing with both feet on the ball.

The design recreates a specific scene from the March 2025 Campeonato Paulista final against Palmeiras. During the closing minutes of that match, Depay performed a provocative dribble that contributed to Corinthians securing the state title. The gesture caused significant tension on the pitch and among fans at the time.

Depay shared the images of the boots on social media on August 26, which coincides with the official founding anniversary of Palmeiras, further intensifying the rivalry between the two clubs.
