"When Will We Get the Commission?" Kappa Claim Nike Stole Barcelona 19-20 Kit Design

In a a bit of Twitter banter, Kappa Spain just reacted to the leak of the Barcelona 19-20 fourth kit by Nike, claiming that it uses a design of their creation.

The picture shared by Kappa puts the leaked Barcelona shirt next to the Kappa-produced shirt of Catalan rugby team Unió Esportiva Santboiana, which does feature a relatively similar look. The captain reads "When do we get the commission?"

As written before, it's likely just a bit of banter and Kappa will not actually ask for a commission from Nike. There's a bit of truth to Kappa's statement, however, as both shirts have a very similar theme.

The Barcelona 2019-2020 fourth kit is set to be launched in October 2019 and will be worn for the away games at Atlético and Real Madrid, as per the leaked information.

Do you believe that the design of the upcoming Barcelona fourth kit did take inspiration from the Santboiana rugby jersey? Drop us a line below, and check out the Kit Overview for more.
