UEFA Kit Rules Strike Again: AS Roma Forced to Change 19-20 Third Kit
Oct 4, 2019, by Pat
AS Roma's stands out even among the excellent 2019-20 Nike third kits. It reached the second spot in our People's Choice Top 10
As spotted by the eagle-eyed people over at footballnerds, Nike and the club had to make a change to the kits ahead of the second match it was worn in.
Following a debut in the match against Istanbul Basaksehir on September 19th, wearing the kit as we know it, the Roma 2019-2020 third kit underwent a small but noticeable change for the match against Wolfsberg yesterday.
Whereas the original Roma 19-20 third shirt (and the one you can buy) features two distinct logos inside the all-over pattern print, the one worn against Wolfsberg does away with the 'ASR' logo and only features the 'Lupetto'.
As you likely already suspected, this change was made due to a complaint by UEFA. As ilromanista.eu point out, the UEFA kit rules state that no more than two logos may feature on a club's shirt. With the original Roma badge taking the space on the chest, the club had to make a choice between the Lupetto and the 'ASR' lettermark.
The Lupetto is probably the right choice here, although it definitely makes the kit a bit worse than it originally us. Fortunately for everyone, the rules do not apply to the Serie A or shirts that are sold in stores.
Are kit regulations going to far? Let's hear your thoughts in the comments below.

FUS Rabat 26-27 Home & Away Kits Released
Moroccan Botola Pro side FUS Rabat has officially unveiled its new home and away kits for the 26-27 season, manufactured by Spanish brand Joma. The capital club steps into the new campaign with a coordinated and sharp visual identity across both strips.
The Joma FUS Rabat 26-27 home shirt is predominantly red, anchored by a prominent central white stripe that runs down the body, broken only for the main sponsor. The fabric features an understated tonal texture throughout, accompanied by a clean white crew neck collar. Inverting the look, the 26-27 away shirt relies on a clean white base centered around a bold red vertical stripe and matching red accents.
Both jerseys carry the traditional FUS Rabat crest on the left chest, with Novec Groupe CDG and Cosumar featured as shirt sponsors. The away kit also includes neat Arabic calligraphy spelling out "Rabat" on the upper back above the player names and numbers. Matching shorts and socks complete the Moroccan club's new 26-27 wardrobe.
