End of August 2026. The championships have resumed, the home jerseys of the major clubs have all been released, and some of the third kits are still awaiting their launch. It’s the right time to sort through what has actually been presented by the clubs and what is circulating on social media without confirmation.

Here is what has been made official for the 2026/27 season, club by club, with presentation dates and design choices. You will find most of these models in our current season collection.

OFFICIAL, LEAK, RUMOR: three words not to be confused

Each entry in this article is preceded by a mention. It indicates the reliability level of the information, and nothing else.

  • OFFICIAL: the jersey has been presented by the club or its manufacturer, with visuals and a press release. It is a certainty.
  • LEAK: images or descriptions have circulated before the announcement, via websites specializing in leaks. These sources are often well-informed, sometimes 95% accurate, but they are never official. A leak can be an abandoned prototype.
  • RUMOR: information without visuals, without an identified source, or contradicted by others. Treat it like bar talk.

The rule is simple: until the club has published, it is not out. A leak site, no matter how serious, does not replace an official statement.

Liga: Real Madrid dares green, Barça plays with gradients

Real Madrid

OFFICIAL — Real Madrid and adidas presented the 2026/27 home jersey on June 3, 2026. White base, as always, but with an unusual contrast: the collar and cuff details are in dark green, while the three adidas stripes turn pink on the shoulders. The club explains that it was inspired by the crown jewels present on its crest. Technically, lightweight fabrics are worked in 3D with climacool+ technology for ventilation.

OFFICIAL — The away jersey arrived on July 23, 2026. It pushes the dark green further, with off-white finishes, a discreet geometric pattern using the club's initials, and a modern collar highlighted with a border. Note for collectors: it is the adidas trefoil logo that appears on the chest, not the performance logo.

OFFICIAL — The third kit followed on August 12, 2026: a deep pink, off-white finishes on the V-neck, cuffs, crest, and stripes, and a geometric pattern that the club links to Latin American craftsmanship. Pink is not a first for the Merengues, but it hadn't appeared for several seasons.

The available Madrid models are grouped together in the collection dedicated to the club.

FC Barcelona

OFFICIAL — Presentation on June 30, 2026, at MACBA, the Barcelona Museum of Contemporary Art, with contemporary dance and live music. The jersey keeps the vertical blue and garnet stripes, but Nike interprets them in several shades to create an effect of depth rather than a solid block of color.

The real novelty is typographical: the club had an exclusive font created, FC Barcelona Modernista, inspired by Catalan modernism — stylized shapes, marked verticality, organic details. It is used for printing names and numbers. The back of the jersey also features background lines that add texture. The jersey is made with Dri-FIT ADV technology, and Midea appears on the left sleeve following its entry as a main partner on July 1st.

The blaugrana jerseys in stock are gathered here, and the rest of the Spanish championship in the Liga selection.

Ligue 1: Paris centers, Marseille changes crest

Paris Saint-Germain

OFFICIEL — Released on May 9, 2026, for the 37th consecutive season of collaboration between PSG and Nike. The jersey returns to a very frontal reading of the Parisian identity: royal blue background, wide central red band bordered with white.

The bold move is elsewhere. The Nike swoosh and the crest are now centered on the chest, superimposed inside the band, which has been widened to accommodate them, instead of their usual lateral placement. The club presents the jersey as a statement to Paris and its supporters, echoing the colors rising from the stands of the Parc des Princes.

Olympique de Marseille

OFFICIAL — Put on sale on June 3, 2026. Puma puts white back at the center, without frills, with blue and gold details on the collar and sleeves. These are the shades of the club's new visual identity: a "Marseille Blue" and a "Marseille Gold" defined with the new crest unveiled in the spring of 2026 and deployed starting this season.

The detail purists will look for first: the motto "Droit Au But" printed in gold on the back of the collar. The authentic version uses the new Puma chassis for the season, recognizable by its woven texture.

The Marseille selection is available here, and the entire championship in the Ligue 1 jerseys.

Premier League: five very different approaches

Liverpool

OFFICIAL — Announced on May 19, 2026. It is probably the most nostalgic jersey of the season: adidas starts from the model worn during the 1989/90 title season, recognizable by its dynamic geometric pattern, and reinterprets it with a cleaner execution. Deep red from head to toe, matching shorts and socks, Standard Chartered as sponsor. The printing also changes, with a typography inspired by the Liver Bird.

Arsenal

OFFICIAL — Presented on May 15, 2026. adidas signs an anniversary jersey: it celebrates twenty years of the Emirates Stadium. Red dominates in tone-on-tone to create depth, white occupies the shoulders, and the three stripes appear in two different reds — a lighter tone in the center, two darker ones on the outside. The material effects of the collar and cuffs refer to the structure of the stadium.

Chelsea

OFFICIAL — Available since June 2, 2026. Nike combines a vivid blue with a bold gold, and above all replaces the modern club logo with the rampant lion, applied in gold on the jersey and shorts. The lion is also woven in tone-on-tone into the fabric, and the collar adopts a buttoned closure. It is the first Chelsea jersey equipped with Nike's Aero-FIT technology. The launch campaign is called "Can't Tame Us."

Manchester City

OFFICIAL — Released on May 20, 2026. Puma abandons the uniform sky blue in favor of a gradient that lightens towards the bottom of the jersey to white, in continuity with the shorts and socks. The crest and sponsor logos are treated in metallic monochrome. The launch is named "Not Your Typical City," a phrase also printed inside the collar.

Manchester United

OFFICIAL — Released on May 14, 2026. adidas adopts a retro register: classic red, return of the polo collar, striped cuffs, white and black details. The club links this graphic vocabulary to the outfits of the 1970s and its FA Cup victory in 1977.

The available English jerseys are grouped together in the Premier League selection.

Serie A: Inter replays 1998, Milan widens its stripes

Inter Milan

OFFICIAL — Launched on May 19, 2026. Nike builds the jersey around a black and a blue called Lyon Blue, with details in University Gold. The reference is explicit: it is a tribute to the 1998 jersey, whose yellow swoosh and crest marked an entire generation. The collar features a classic detail from the past and bears the words "Made of Milano" on the inside.

The finest detail is on the edges of the stripes, whose finish evokes a tailor's scissors cut — a nod to the Milanese sartorial tradition. If the period interests you, it directly crosses the kits worn by Ronaldo Nazário at Inter, and our selection of retro nerazzurri jerseys.

Milan AC

OFFICIAL — Available since May 22, 2026. Puma makes the opposite choice of invention: wide, bold red and black stripes that run across the entire jersey front and back, white shorts and socks circled in red and black. The inscription "From Milan to the World" accompanies the design, and a wax seal reproducing the crest is affixed to the back of the collar. ULTRAWEAVE fabric on the authentic version, dryCELL and 100% recycled material excluding trims on the replica.

Juventus

OFFICIAL — Presented on May 12, 2026. adidas reworks the bianconere vertical stripes with stricter geometry and clear spacing, and brings back the polo collar. Gold finishes highlight the crest, the adidas logo, and the numbering. The white shorts feature the same gold details.

The Italian championship is gathered in the Serie A selection.

Bundesliga: Bayern sticks to its fundamentals

OFFICIAL — adidas delivers a deliberately sober jersey: dominant red, white on the shoulders and sleeves, and two shades of red that draw a striped pattern on the body of the jersey. The club describes a kit meant to express confidence and a winning mentality, while maintaining a traditional reading. The other German models are in the Bundesliga selection.

What is not yet official

LEAK — The third PSG jersey had still not been officially presented by the end of August 2026. Visuals attributed to a pre-match top associated with this range circulated on specialized sites, describing wavy patterns in unusual shades for the club. No element is confirmed by PSG or Nike at this stage: until there is a press release, consider these images unvalidated.

This is the general rule for third jerseys, which traditionally come out later than home and away kits, often between August and October. The period when leaks are most numerous is also the one where they are least reliable.

The assumed retro. Liverpool starts from 1989/90, Inter from 1998, Manchester United from the 1970s, Juventus brings back the polo collar. Manufacturers no longer just cite the past with a color: they take back entire patterns, collars, and typographies. This shift toward the archive is no coincidence — it extends the lasting attachment to 90s models.

The gradient. Manchester City fades its sky blue towards white, Barcelona modulates its stripes in several shades. The single-shade jersey is receding in favor of a color that moves on the body.

Gold as a signature. Chelsea, Juventus, Inter, OM: gold is no longer just for anniversary jerseys. It becomes a standard accent on crests, prints, and collars.

Before ordering

Two points to check systematically. First, the version: the clubs almost all market a supporter version and a player version, which share neither the fit, nor the fabrics, nor the price. If you are hesitant, our comparison details what really separates the two.

Then the size. Cuts vary from one manufacturer to another, and a player version fits much closer to the body than a supporter version. The size guide avoids unnecessary returns.

Finally, a simple reflex when faced with a jersey advertised as "new" on a merchant site: verify that the club has actually presented it. A leaked visual reproduced on a product sheet does not guarantee the final color, the final sponsor, or even the existence of the model. All the jerseys listed here have been officially released — you can browse them in the 2026/27 selection.
