Leaked Inter Milan 22-23 Away Kit Features No Star - Why?
May 17, 2022, by Chris
The new Internazionale 2022-2023 away jersey was leaked last week. In contrast to Inter's current kits, it does not feature a star - let us find out what the likely reason is.
In Italy, teams can out a star on their kit for 10 league titles, respectively - 10, 20, 30, 40, etc. The reigning champions also earn the right to have the famous Scudetto on their kits - the Scudetto is being worn by Inter Milan in the 2021-22 season.
Inter One Title Short For Second Star
The very likely reason for the Inter Milan 22-23 away kit to have no star is simple - Inter are just one title away from earning their second star. Nike have therefore certainly decided to produce the kit without stars, in order to be able to add two stars synchronously if Inter win the 20th title.
There are three possibilities for the Inter 22-23 kits and the stars.
Option 1 - Inter Win League & Gain 2nd Star
- 2 stars added to all kits, or only home
- No Stars on 22-23 kits at all
Option 2 - Inter Do Not Gain 2nd Star
- 1 star added to all kits, or only home
- No Stars on 22-23 kits at all
Nike may decide to have no stars on Inter's kits in 22-23, or possibly only on the home kit. This would be similar to Bayern in the 21-22 season (only the home featured five stars).
There is also a chance that the image shows a faulty prototype without a star, but that is very unlikely.
As things stand, it is much more likely that AC Milan win the 2021-2022 Serie A. They have to gain one point away against Sassuuolo next weekend.
AC Milan need two titles for the second star
Meanwhile, if AC Milan win the league, they would equalize with Inter's 19 titles and be just one title away from having their second star.

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.
