Botman is now one of several Newcastle players to be signed-up with Adidas. Joelinton, Anthony Gordon, Alexander Isak and Lewis Miley all recently featured in the German sportswear company's promotional campaign for the new Predator 24 boots.
Magpies midfielder Bruno Guimaraes is also an Adidas athlete and wore a 90s Newcastle Adidas shirt for the initial launch of the Predator 24 last month.
Adidas' deals with Newcastle players come ahead of the upcoming kit deal with the club. Newcastle’s current deal with kit manufacturers Castore will end following the 2023-24 campaign with Adidas returning for the first time since 2010.
