The singer is also bringing back the limited edition Starboy jerseys.

The co-creation stadium shirt, which costs £64.95, will be available on Nike’s website on October 1.

The collaboration shirt is a celebration of Wizkid’s Nigerian roots. The jersey’s green and white trimmings reflect the Nigerian flag.

Nike describes the design as “a fitting celebration of both personal and collective talent and ingenuity, and one that defines Wizkid’s dizzying accomplishments and Nigeria’s growing cultural footprint”.
