Major League Soccer and adidas reveal 2020 official match ball

Major League Soccer and adidas today revealed the official match ball for the league’s milestone 25th season, the 2020 MLS NATIVO XXV.

Newly constructed with enhanced materials and tested by the world’s top players, this reimagined NATIVO pulls inspiration from the first MLS ball in 1996 to celebrate the 25th MLS season and kickoff a new decade of soccer in North America. The ball will go on sale online and in stores on Jan. 2, 2020.

Incorporating colors from the original MLS ball and identity, the bold, progressive NATIVO design is inspired by the past but very much built for the future.
