Barça Players & Club Forced Nike To Change 20-21 Third Kit Combination
Update: It has been revealed that it was Barcelona themselves that want to wear black shorts and socks. According to Mundo Deportivo journalist Fernando Polo (@ffpolo), Barcelona had modified their third kit color combination from green shorts & socks to black shorts & socks because neither the players liked the initial combination, nor the club’s business area.
