Stunning Adidas Valencia 16-17 Third Kit Released
Sep 30, 2016, by Chris
Valencia CF and its kit supplier Adidas today revealed the new Valencia 2016-17 third kit, which will be used along with the 2016-17 home kit in the Copa del Rey and is therefore also called Copa Kit. It draws inspiration from the club and the Valencia region which always had a strong link with the color orange.
Valencia 2016-17 Copa Kit
This is the new orange Adidas Valencia 16-17 third shirt.
The new Valencia 16-17 third jersey is Solar Orange with black Three Stripes on the sleeves and a black v-collar. The bat with the club's founding year of 1919 is located on the back under the collar.
The fluorescent orange of the shirt is carried over to the shorts, with the black details of the Adidas logo and the monochrome badge also remaining the same. The socks for the kit continue the orange theme.
Interestingly, the club also announced that the 'three Adidas VCF kits for the 2016/17 season are designed so that they can be mixed with each other, as the white, black and solar orange colors are fully combinable.'

First Time in 12 Years: Juventus Bring Back Long-Sleeved Kits on Pitch
Making his Juventus debut in the match against AC Milan, Nick Woltemade was the only Juventus player on the pitch wearing long sleeves. Excluding special-edition kits, the German strike became the first Bianconeri player made this choice since Andrea Pirlo and Claudio Marchisio back in the 13-14 season.
Remarkably, even Cristiano Ronaldo, a long-sleeve icon, never wore one during his time in Turin.
Liverpool Could Use a Text-Only Turkish Airlines Sponsor?
Liverpool have announced that Turkish Airlines will become the club's new shirt sponsor from the 2027-28 season, ending the Reds' 17-year partnership with Standard Chartered.
While early fan concepts have used Turkish Airlines' familiar circular bird logo above the wordmark, a text-only sponsor could also be a realistic option.
The airline previously used a simplified two-line “TURKISH AIRLINES” wordmark on River Plate's shirts between 2019 and 2022, while Turkish clubs such as Galatasaray and Samsunspor have also used streamlined typographic versions of the branding.
A text-only layout could give Liverpool's future Adidas shirts a cleaner, less crowded look. The final sponsor application has yet to be confirmed, with the partnership set to begin in June 2027.
