Oregon based sportswear giants Nike have unveiled the limited edition Mercurial Superfly Shuai boots the Madeira born striker will wear for the first time when Juve face Serie A rivals Inter Milan in their pre-season game set to be staged at the Nanjing Olympic Sports Center in China on July 24 as part of the International Champions Cup 2019.

The Asian country inspire the boot with the word 'Shuai' meaning 'looking good' in Cantonese.
