Arsenal striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang was in attendance, as was former Borussia Dortmund team-mate Christian Pulisic.

Liverpool quartet Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, Jordan Henderson, Emre Can and Joe Gomez travelled from Merseyside down south.

The stars were at The Printworks in Surrey Quays, south east London, as the latest installment of the Mecurial boot was unveiled.

Cristiano Ronaldo teased fans on social media recently with a video of himself sharing the face of a leopard.

The new boots could follow the leopard theme in the colours of orange and black, before a revamped colourway prior to this summer’s World Cup in Russia.

The sportswear giant also released new goalkeeper gloves, shinpads and a ball under the Mercurial name.

Nike unveiled to the world the new home kit of the Nigerian national team earlier today, while England’s kit has also been released.
