The Catalans are back in black

Barcelona released their new away kit for 2020-21 on Friday, and as we’ve seen before it’s a pretty classy number.

The Catalan giants will be in all black with a gold trim on their travels next season. Here’s how Lionel Messi looks in the new strip.

According to Nike the kit is ”is inspired by the electric atmosphere of Barcelona by night. When the sun goes down, the avenues of the Catalan capital come alive, bringing energy and light to the darkened city blocks.”

The kit is completed with black shorts, with the club badge in gold. The socks are also black but have Barca and the club badge in gold.

Here’s what Gerard Pique thinks about it:

“Black and gold go really well together and the kit looks really sharp. It has been a few years since we have had black, so it’s a nice change to have it back.”

The shirt is made from recycled polyster from plastic bottles and is available to buy from today.
