Barcelona to wear innovative home shirt for Champions League matches in 2021/22

As is becoming something more and more kit manufacturers are exploring, innovative shirt designs have been seen at Manchester United and Arsenal, yet now Barcelona have jumped on the bandwagon with the Catalan club unveiling a unique design for Champions League matches in 2021/22.

It may seem like a desperate cash-grab for the more cynical of supporters, with young children often more attracted to different, vibrant shirt designs, yet the evidence is there that such ventures make good business sense for football clubs, which would be a blessing for Los Cules at this time.

Mundo Deportivo have revealed an image of the shirt which will be worn in the Champions League exclusively, so the Blaugrana will have one home shirt for domestic matches and another for continental ties.

This has been done before too, with Manchester United's 1998/1999 season sporting two different home shirts for domestic and European competitions.

The Catalan newspaper revealed the details of the Nike manufactured shirt, which still maintains the traditional Blaugrana vertical stripes, but they aren't as neat as normal.
