The boots worn by the Brazil international are the same as the regular edition of the Adidas Ace 2016 Soccer Cleats, apart from the blackout look. Combining a knitted upper with a techfit collar, the most remarkable element of the boots worn by Oscar is the fact that his trousers hides the collar that wraps around the ankle.
Do you think that Oscar will already debut the blackout boots in today's match against WBA? Let us know in the comments below.
Al-Muharraq SC 26-27 Home & Away Kits Released
Bahraini powerhouse Al-Muharraq SC has unveiled its new home and away kits for the 26-27 season, once again crafted by Italian brand Macron. The new collection stays true to the club's heritage with refined, classic designs that incorporate traditional club colors and rich local symbolism.
The 26-27 home shirt arrives in the club's signature vibrant red, complemented by a white polo-style collar and thin white piping running down the sides. In contrast, the away jersey reverses the palette with a crisp white base accented by a red collar and matching trim. Both jerseys incorporate subtle tonal jacquard vertical stripes into the fabric, lending a classic touch to the modern performance material.
A standout detail on both shirts is the central chest graphic placed between the Macron Hero and the embroidered club crest. It features the silhouette of Muharraq alongside the founding year 1928 and the Arabic inscription "المحرق أمانة تتوارثها الأجيال" (Muharraq is a trust inherited across generations). Sponsors DHL and eazypay complete the look on the front.
CD Lugo 26-27 Home Kit Released
Spanish Primera Federación side CD Lugo and Puma have officially unveiled the club's new home kit for the 2026-27 season. Launched under the Galician campaign slogan "Cambia o trazo, non a identidade" (Change the stroke, not the identity), the design modernizes the club's historic look while maintaining its core identity.
The Puma CD Lugo 2026-27 home shirt features the traditional red-and-white vertical stripes, updated with a subtle gradient effect along the edges of the red stripes that gives the pattern a dynamic, softened feel. Red takes the primary focus across the top, covering the set-in sleeves and forming the front portion of the V-neck collar, which is accented by white trim along the collar and cuffs.
Moving away from previous blue accent trims, the new shirt adopts a cleaner red, white, and black palette. It is completed with the Puma cat logo on the chest, the club crest over the heart, and the familiar Estrella Galicia sponsor centered across the torso.
Nottingham Forest Announce Bally Bet Sleeve Sponsor Deal
Nottingham Forest have officially announced a two-season partnership with Bally’s Intralot, confirming them as the club's Official Sleeve Partner for the 26-27 and 27-28 campaigns.
As part of the agreement, the Bally Bet logo will appear on the sleeves of the men’s first-team shirts, while the Jackpotjoy branding will feature on the sleeves of the Nottingham Forest Women’s first team. The move follows Bally’s tenure as the club’s primary front-of-shirt sponsor during the 25-26 season.
With the Premier League’s ban on front-of-shirt gambling sponsorships coming into effect for the 26-27 season, Forest introduced Marex as their new front-of-shirt sponsor.
Shifting Bally's to the sleeve allows the club to extend their commercial partnership while adhering to the league's regulations, which continue to permit gambling brands on shirt sleeves.
Hull City Announce McVitie's as Sleeve Sponsor for 26-27 Season
Hull City has officially announced the return of iconic British biscuit brand McVitie's as the official sleeve sponsor across all first-team playing shirts throughout the 26-27 season. The deal marks a reunion between the Tigers and pladis-owned McVitie's, following an earlier partnership between the two during the 23-24 campaign.
The distinctive navy and gold McVitie's badge sits directly on the left sleeve above the cuff trim, complementing the club's 26-27 kit range produced by Oxen. Unfortunately, these colors do not fit.
