La Liga Unveils New Puma Match Ball for 2026-27 Season

La Liga Puma Stellar Nitro Ultimate

La Liga introduced a brand new match ball for the 2026-27 season. The Spanish league replaced its old Orbita ball with the Puma Stellar Nitro Ultimate.

Why La Liga Switched to the New Ball

Faster Energy Return: The ball features a nitrogen-foam core inside. This core springs back quicker upon contact, sending passes and shots off the boot with extra speed.

New 4+4 Panel Shape: Puma dropped the old 12-panel layout. The new eight-panel design cuts wind drag and keeps flight paths steady.

Textured Outer Grip: A rough surface texture helps the ball slice through air and gives players better boot control.

Used Across Top Leagues in Europe

Puma created this single ball model for three major leagues. La Liga, the Premier League, and Serie A will all play with the Stellar Nitro Ultimate this year.
