Matt O'Riley Signs With Skechers
Published
Skechers continues to add to its roster of football stars with its latest signing, Matt O'Riley, the Danish midfielder from the Premier League’s Brighton & Hove Albion. The move marks a significant step for Skechers Football as O'Riley becomes the first Danish footballer to join the brand’s growing roster of elite athletes.
O'Riley’s journey to the Premier League has been one of steady progression. After starting in Fulham's academy at just eight years old, he made his first-team debut in 2017 before moving to Milton Keynes Dons in 2021, where he quickly made an impact and was named EFL Young Player of the Month in November 2021. His performances caught the attention of Celtic, where he helped the club secure multiple league titles before jumping to the English top flight with Brighton in August 2024. O'Riley initially represented England at the youth level on the international stage before committing to Denmark, making his senior debut in November 2023.
Now, as a member of Team Skechers, O'Riley is excited to showcase the brand’s football innovations to fans in Denmark and beyond. “While adjusting to my new challenge of the Premier League at the start of this season, I discovered that Skechers has the most comfortable and high-performance boots with the stability I need for my game,” said Matt O'Riley. “I'm really excited to showcase Skechers Football to fans in Denmark while representing the brand on the pitch in all my matches—for Brighton and the Danish National Team.”
O'Riley joins a rapidly expanding roster of Skechers Football athletes, including Harry Kane, Isco Alarcón, Mohammed Kudus, Baris Alper Yilmaz, Anthony Elanga, and Oleksandr Zinchenko. Download the Sole Retriever mobile app for more updates on the latest happenings in the sneaker world.
