Portugal 2018 World Cup Home Kit Released
The Portugal 2018 World Cup home kit was just revealed ahead of its full release date of 23 March, 2018. Portugal's 2018 World Cup jersey introduces gold-metallic trim and a classy look, inspired by the 2016 Euro triumph.
“The collection is inspired by the success of two years ago,” says Pete Hoppins, Nike Football Apparel Senior Design Director. “That comes through in the home kit with this concept of modern royalty. From Luis Figo to Cristiano, Portugal have a number of iconic characters who have led and united the squad.”
“Ronaldo is a Portuguese hero,” explains Hoppins. “We wanted to tell the story of the modern king of football leading this new team.”
Portugal 2018 World Cup Kit
This is the Portugal 2018 home jersey.
Following on Euro 2016's heavily templated look, the Portugal 2018 World Cup jersey combines a red base with gold logos and a green collar. The inside of the neck of Portugal's 2018 jersey features a pride graphic inspired by the country's naval history - it's very similar to the logo found on the new Cristiano Ronaldo signature boots.
The sleeves of the Portugal 2018 World Cup shirt are slightly lighter and boast a knit stripe pattern that runs from one sleeve to the other across the top of the arm and upper back, a staple of Nike's 2018 Vapor template.
Red shorts and green socks complete the Portugal 2018 World Cup kit, although the white away shorts and socks could be used as well if required.
The Portugal 2018 home shirt will be available to buy from 23 March, 2018.

Uruguay Requests FIFA 'Legacy' Patch for Muslera's 2026 World Cup Kit
The Uruguayan Football Association (AUF) has formally requested that FIFA allow goalkeeper Fernando Muslera to wear the special 'Legacy' patch on his jersey sleeve during the 2026 World Cup. The patch is designated for players who have participated in five or more World Cup tournaments, a milestone Muslera is reaching with his inclusion in the 2026 squad.
Muslera was initially excluded from receiving the patch by FIFA because he did not register any playing time during the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, despite being part of the official squad. His previous World Cup appearances came in 2010, 2014, and 2018. The AUF is now pushing for his recognition alongside other five-time tournament veterans such as Lionel Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo, Manuel Neuer, and Luka Modrić.
The 40-year-old goalkeeper is expected to start in Uruguay's opening match of the 2026 World Cup. If FIFA approves the request, Muslera's jersey will feature the 'Legacy' patch, marking his long-standing service to the national team across five different World Cup campaigns.
