Brazilian Team Steals Nike Barcelona Kit Design Pattern
Brazilian football currently sees the popular Brazilian states football championships. In the Campeonato Paulista, the regional championships of São Paulo, Mirassol Futebol Clube are wearing some "interesting" kits.
Mirassol Futebol Clube currently play in the Série C, the third tier of Brazilian football, as well as in the Campeonato Paulista Série A1, the top tier of the São Paulo state football league.
Mirassol 2022 Kits - Feature Pattern of Barcelona 19-20 Third Kit
The Mirassol 2022 kits feature the same pattern as the Nike FC Barcelona 2019-2020 third kit. This has been spotted by our follower @thiagognclves. The pattern of Barca's kit is inspired by the Barcelona coat of arms.
Apart from the pattern, there are no similarities to FC Barcelona's kit. Mirassol's 2022 home kit is inspired by the iconic uniform used by Ronaldo, Rivaldo and co in winning Brazil's fifth world title at the 2002 World Cup in Japan.
The kits are made by Brazilian company Physicus
Mirassol's kits are made by Brazilian company Physicus. Physicus is "specialized in manufacturing Sports Equipment and Accessories with over 20 years in the market and became one of the best companies in the country".
What do you think of Mirassol copying the design of Barcelona's 2019-2020 third kit? Comment below.

LEAKED: Adidas to Upgrade Leeds United to Local Elite Tier
As spotted by @theadelites, a new customisation option on the Leeds United club shop website allows fans to chosse between replica and authentic kits (added by error too early). This probably means that Adidas has upgraded the club from the B Premium tier to one of the Local A Elite tiers. The move gives fans the option to select authentic kits built around advanced Climacool+ performance technology.
Reports from February indicated similar upgrades for clubs including Ajax and Lyon ahead of the 2026-27 season, but Adidas apparently postponed/scrapped these. Adidas previously already upgraded British teams Celtic, Aston Villa, and Newcastle United.
A quick color analysis of Newcastle's 26-27 home kit. It are not the colors that make this shirt bad, unlike the Madrid 26-27 kit.
