Last night, Nike unveiled the new 2009/2010 Inter Milan soccer kit at The Montalbán Theater in Hollywood in front of hundreds of fans and celebrities. The event featured a blue carpet arrival by team players and dignitaries as well as a runway show displaying the history of the team kit.
This year, Inter Milan celebrates the 100th anniversary of its first national championship and the kit draws inspiration from the glorious past of the blue and black club. The reigning Italian League champions will wear the new uniform next season as well in the much anticipated World Football Challenge Tournament in the US that will see the squad go up against other soccer giants including Club America, Italian rivals AC Milan and Chelsea. The team is in Los Angeles where they will face Chelsea on July 21st, 2009.
Those in attendance included Josè Mourinho, Inter Milan Coach; and players such as Ibrahimovic, Materazzi, Toldo, Thiago Motta, Cambiasso and Muntari.
“We are very proud to have Inter Milan, one of the premium soccer clubs of Europe and the world, as part of the Nike family,” said Bert Hoyt, VP/GM Global Football/Soccer for Nike. “We look forward to seeing the club win many more championships during the next 100 years.”
