A high-profile friendly at Sankt Jakob-Park, where the’FC Basel Tomorrow it will host the multiple title-winner Bayern Munich. A big match between two teams steeped in history and brimming with trophies, which calls for a ball worthy of this occasion. Alongside the star players from both teams, tomorrow’s line-up will in fact include the new Macron ‘Tsunami XI’ football’, who will be making his debut in this top-flight fixture.

The ball ‘Tsunami XI’, designed and developed entirely in the Macron Headquarters in Bologna, is characterised by a state-of-the-art design. It consists of 16 heat-sealed panels, the outer surface is made of textured PU, ensuring maximum performance and optimum control. An essential piece of kit, further enhanced by modern, geometric graphics in which shades of blue blend with the ball’s white colour.

For FC Basel, this will be a sort of preview of what is set to become the new normal for all Swiss professional clubs from next summer onwards. The 2024–25 season will, in fact, be Macron’s first as new Official Match Ball Partner for competitions organised by the Swiss Football League, for which a ball that is cutting-edge in every respect and featuring exclusive, fully customised graphics will be made available.

The ‘Tsunami XI’, a high-quality, high-performance product, will feature in the Macron 2024 catalogue and will therefore soon be available to purchase on macron.com, at Macron Sports Hubs and from authorised retailers.
