Fenerbahçe Remove Stars From 21-22 Puma Kits - Here's Why
While announcing the Puma deal yesterday, Fenerbahçe President Ali Koc revealed that the club's jerseys wouldn't feature stars above the crest anymore.
This was confirmed just hours later when the first pictures of the Puma Fenerbahçe 21-22 home kit got leaked.
But why did Fenerbahçe make this decision?
First, a bit of background. The Süper Lig star system allows clubs to place a star above their crest for every five championships they've won.

At the moment, Fenerbahçe would be entitled to three stars, just like Beşiktaş. Galatasaray top the chart with 22 championships and four stars, while Trabzonspor have a single star on their shirts.
Generally only titles won since the inception of the Süper Lig in 1959 count towards the total, although there are a two exceptions for Beşiktaş and their 56-57 and 57-58 titles won in the Turkish Federation Cup.
The current controversy started when Fenerbahçe requested that a further nine titles won before 1959 should be officially recognized, which would bring the club's total up to 28 titles / 5 stars. A few other smaller clubs have joined this request while there's opposition from Fenerbahçe's main rivals, including Galatasaray.
Turkish Football Federation President Nihat Özdemir recently stated that a decision on the matter would be made shortly, explaining that it would not "please everyone".
We believe that the club's decision to remove the stars from the 2021-22 kits is to give a public display of disapproval of the current counts.

Neymar to Retain Brazil No. 10 Shirt for 2026 World Cup
The debate over Brazil’s most iconic shirt number has been officially settled ahead of the 2026 World Cup. It has been confirmed that Neymar will retain the famous No. 10 jersey for the upcoming tournament in North America.
Following a lengthy period away from the national team due to injury, questions had naturally arisen regarding the future of the prestigious shirt. During Neymar's prolonged absence, the Brazilian No. 10 was shared among the squad's other attacking stars. Both Vinicius Junior and Raphinha have donned the historic number in recent international fixtures.
Despite their growing influence and status within the Seleção, both players have willingly stepped aside out of respect for the veteran forward. Highlighting the squad's unity on the matter, Vinicius Junior openly addressed the situation, stating clearly that the shirt "obviously belongs to Neymar."
Earlier rumors suggested that Neymar might adopt the No. 13 jersey.
Do you agree with the decision to keep Neymar in the No. 10 shirt, or was it time to pass it on to a younger player like Vinicius Junior? Let us know in the comments below.
