Outside of his day job as an elite footballer playing for Olympique de Marseille and the USA, Tim Weah loves producing music. For the launch of New Balance’s Furon v8 we brought his obsession to the forefront, placing a baby grand piano on the centre of the Stade Francis Di Giovanni in Marseille, one of the most cinematic pitches in Europe.

In our film Tim performs a 70s jazz piece while styled in a black suit, a nod to his early years spent growing up in Brooklyn. This is a film that playfully captures who he is as a person, in those hours spent away from the training ground.
