Inspiring Athlete Campaigns

This Paul Podba Adidas Ad Highlights the Star's Journey to Success

— October 18, 2016 — Lifestyle
A part of its #HereToCreate series, this Paul Pogba adidas ad considers how the young soccer star has never lost sight of his goals and has never been afraid to be original. As HYPEBEAST reports, the commercial is additionally "a celebration of the man’s return to Old Trafford."

It begins with a young boy who represents Paul Pogba, who's kicking around a ball with skill in the middle of a busy market. The scene changes to a cement soccer field, where he's shown outplaying opponents who are clearly much older than him.

He runs to class, playfully winks at a girl and then heads home, where he again kicks a ball around his house -- much to the dismay of his downstairs neighbor. Through out the Paul Pogba adidas ad, the soccer star's name is repeated, ending with a stadium of fans chanting it in unison.
