Borussia Dortmund 110 Years Kit
This is the Puma Dortmund 110th anniversary shirt.
The Puma Borussia Dortmund 110 Years soccer shirt introduces a stealth look with tonal club and supplier logos. The Bundesliga and Opel logos also feature a tone-on-tone design, while the back numbers and lettering are silver.
This fierce look, which promoted Jadon Sancho to name it his favorite kit ever, is inspired by the city of Dortmund's traditional coal and steel industries - a bit like the regular 19-20 away. There's also a certain similarity to the yet-to-be-released Germany 2020 away kit.

No Betting Ban in Championship: West Ham Keeps Boyle Sports as 26-27 Kit Sponsor Following Relegation
Following their relegation to the Championship, West Ham United have officially confirmed that Boyle Sports will continue as their front-of-shirt sponsor for the 2026-27 season.
The betting company's logo will feature on the men's and women's home, away, third, and training kits, a move made possible because the English Football League does not currently enforce the Premier League's restrictions on gambling sponsors.

Manuel Neuer's 2026 World Cup Kits Feature Different Match Detail Placements
During Germany's 2026 World Cup campaign, goalkeeper Manuel Neuer wore shirts with three distinct match detail placements across his four appearances. The 40-year-old's Adidas kits featured unusual variations in where the opponent, date, and venue text was printed.
In the first two group stage matches, Neuer's blue goalkeeper shirt displayed the match details in the standard central position on the chest. For the final group game against Ecuador, the text on his pink kit was moved underneath the German national team crest. This adjustment was reportedly made to align with the outfield players' shirts, which featured the match details under the Adidas Trefoil logo to balance the chest layout.
A third variation appeared in the Round of 32 against Paraguay. On Neuer's yellow shirt, the match details were placed directly underneath the Adidas logo on the right side of the chest. This final unique placement marked Neuer's last World Cup appearance, as Germany was eliminated following a 3-4 defeat.
