Update: Another picture of the same Barcelona jersey we covered here before is circulating these days. What's written below still stands.
Following on the first details on the upcoming Barcelona away and third kits that leaked over the weekend, an image allegedly showing the Barcelona 17-18 home kit has surfaced. Featuring new main sponsor and all that. However, we can confirm that the image does NOT show the actual Barcelona 2017-18 home jersey, but more on that shortly.
Barcelona 17-18 Home Kit?
This is the image that is supposed to show the Barcelona 2017-2018 home shirt.
Upon first glance, someone who saw Mundo Deportivo's initial sketch from May will immediately notice the glaring similarity to this design. The alleged Barcelona 17-18 jersey features asymmetrical stripes whose widths decrease towards the sides, a crew neck and blank sleeves.
Mundo Deportivo's sketch
All in all, while the real Barcelona 2017-2018 home jersey could end up looking more than just a bit similar to this, we expect it to boast a more intricate design that this fake overall. We also think that the asymmetrical striping was ditched in the end and that a red stripe will be the centerpiece of the kit.
