"Oh us? No we're too busy I'm afraid, we won't be able to join you." That's exactly what you don't say when Nike invite you to the Etihad Campus to get a lesson in how you craft a creative game with Kevin De Bruyne. A location that is second to none with a player who is up there at the very top and a brand that continues to supercharge football evolution, don't mind if we do.

It may seem like simple fun and games but there's a level of understanding on offer as we sail into Northern Quarters and suit up in the armour threaded with Nike AeroSwift attention to detail. Offering a unique insight into the philosophy behind the Nike Magista II, we join Kevin De Bruyne and coaches from Manchester City to go through a series of drills that are focused on unleashing the qualities of the creative player.

Some description

From quick footwork to dominating decisions, this boot has been designed to form an intuitive link between the mind of the on pitch maverick and the feet of the flair player. Locked down in clever thinking, they're a reflection of an exciting player that has the ability to switch up the game before a pass has been played.

What's more, an evolved Magista II has seen Nike take all the understanding from the boots first iteration and land evolved with ultimate efficiency. Comfort championed and supported from heel to toe, this is a boot made up of two components that rise up the ankle revitalised. No constricting factors, it is one that has been suitably modified for the Magista mind and with the likes of Kevin De Bruyne making the switch from Superfly, it's a sign of the player symbolic to those creative qualities.
