The agreement with Spotify has plausibly come into force with the arrival of the music streaming platform’s logo on the chest of the FC Barcelona kit. The Blaugrana club presented its new kit this Friday, which is quite innovative on many points.
After ‘simulating’ the shield in Blaugrana, Barcelona together with Nike, its technical sponsor, both have revolutionized the first kit with the entry of navy blue between the already characteristic blue of maroon.
This new color covers the shoulders and also dyes pants and socks as well as adding two stripes to the usual Barcelona kit with blue and maroon bars. According to the club, this design is in homage to the 30th birthday of the Barcelona 92 Olympic Games and has been designed under the concept ‘The Flame is Still Alive’. In its statement, the club says that “through its design it captures the spirit that marked that era of renewal and redefinition with which Barcelona opened up to the world and the world to Barcelona.”
Spotify is not the only new sponsor that enters the culé shirt. UNHCR, the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, will also appear on the shirt with its logo located just below the back of the shirt.. On top of this, it shows off a small senyera.

To present the shirt, the presence of male and female players has been quite equal and also, with many faces. Dani Alves, Piqué, Alexia, Mapi León, Oshoala, Pedri, Aitana… The number of models attract attention and also the presence of Frenkie de Jong. The Dutchman, as AS learned, has the transferable sign and neither Xavi nor Laporta ensure his continuity. The player himself expressed his intentions in an interview with ESPN. “I prefer to stay in Barcelona. Barcelona is the club of my dreams since I was little, but if other clubs call, I will take the call, of course; it is something that is always done,” he said. At the moment, he wears the shirt for next season without any certainty that he will do so on the first day of LaLiga.
