The cover is made of 100% Polyurethane (TPU), offering a consistent contact zone.
Is this ball suitable for official matches?
This ball is designed for training and casual play. While durable, it may not meet the specifications for official FIFA matches.
How do I clean the football?

Troubleshooting
Ball won't inflate
Ensure the pump needle is fully inserted into the valve and that the valve itself is clear of debris. Check that the pump is functioning correctly.
Ball loses air quickly
Check the valve for any damage or leaks. Ensure the valve cap is properly secured after inflation. If the issue persists, the butyl bladder may have a slow leak and may need professional inspection or replacement.
Cover appears damaged or stitching is coming undone
Inspect the ball for any signs of excessive wear or damage. If the damage is minor, continue using it for casual play. For significant damage, the ball may no longer be suitable for effective play and should be replaced.
Ball feels 'off' or inconsistent during play
Ensure the ball is inflated to the correct pressure. Uneven inflation can lead to inconsistent performance. Check for any visible deformities on the ball's surface.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The adidas x Messi Club Football requires inflation before first use. Use a standard football pump with a suitable needle to inflate the ball to the recommended pressure. The recommended pressure is typically indicated near the valve or on the ball itself (often 0.5-0.7 BAR or 7-10 PSI). Do not over-inflate.
Compatibility: This Size 4 ball is ideal for younger players aged 8-12, or for indoor play and small-sided games. It is compatible with standard football pumps.
Care: To maintain the ball's performance and longevity:
- Cleaning: Wipe the ball clean with a damp cloth after use, especially if it has been used on grass or dirt. Avoid using harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
- Storage: Store the ball in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. It's best to store it slightly deflated if not in use for extended periods.
- Avoid Hard Surfaces: Do not use the ball on concrete or asphalt surfaces for prolonged periods, as this can damage the cover and stitching.
