UEFA Releases Own Referee Badge, Replacing FIFA's
Referees have quietly debuted a new patch on their shirts during the recent return of the Champions League and Europa League.
Referees Debut Brand-New 'UEFA Match Official' Badges in Champions League + Europa League
Whereas referees in the two competitions would previously wear their usual 'FIFA Referee' patch, they've now swapped it for a new one that reads 'UEFA Match Official'.
As far as we are aware, UEFA did not communicate this change, which could also be observed in the 2020-21 qualifiers that are already underway. It seems to be a purely visual change.
We also expect referees to still use the regular FIFA / federation badges when officiating in domestic leagues.

Adidas Germany 'Alternate History' 1992 Collection Leaked
Update - Friday, May 22, 2026: Thanks to our follower @Julifu90, we have an image of the t-shirt of the Adidas Germany EQT 1992 retro collection. It is set to be released in the coming days.
We have the first image of a unique new Adidas Germany retro jacket, showcasing an intriguing new approach from the sportswear brand.
While the design instantly evokes strong nostalgia for the 1990s, this upcoming release is actually an "alternate history" creation. Despite its highly authentic vintage appearance and period-accurate details, this specific track jacket never actually existed in the official Adidas catalogues during the 1990s, making it a brand new addition to their retro-focused lifestyle collection.
To achieve this convincing old-school aesthetic, Adidas has utilized their classic 1992 template as the structural foundation for the design. The garment features a vibrant green base that heavily nods to Germany's traditional away kits of the era. The colors of the German national flag are cleverly completed on the sleeves through large geometric blocks that also recreate the 3 stripes.
The same jacket will also be released for Spain and other Adidas national teams.
