FC Barcelona presented this Tuesday, under the slogan “The shirt that represents us; the shirt is
more than a club ”,
the new Nike home kit that he will wear next season. The act held at the Camp Nou was not lacking in fanfare, with choral singers, gospel singers and even rap singers, in the same way that the ball was not lacking, used by the school children to
warm up
the event with a rondo . And so, to the rhythm of the musical notes, four players from the first team appeared to show the shirt: Ansu Fati and Riqui Puig from the men's; Caroline Graham Hansen and Marta Torrejón, of the feminine.
It is a zamarra inspired by the shield of the club with the Cross of Sant Jordi in the top right flank, and four red bars of the
Catalan flag
on the heart. At the bottom, below the sponsor -Stanley in the female; Rakuten in the masculine-, another four blue and red bars are repeated, always vertical. Another novelty of the elastic is that the sleeves and legs are blue -on the left side- and garnets -on the right-. “122 years ago, Joan Gamper, with 11 friends, founded the club. And they decided to give the club the name of our city and adopt the Cross of Sant Jordi and the
senyera
, as has been reflected in the shirt ", said President Joan Laporta, while claiming the identity of the
Cruyffistas
in club teams.
"I want all the fans to wear this shirt when they come here, to the Johan Cruyff or the Palau," Laporta closed.
The new shirt can be purchased from this Wednesday in the official club stores.
The second kit - which will be mauve -, however, will not be presented until July 15, while the third - the
starter
for the Champions League games - will be made in September.
