Vietnam 2023 Away Kit Released

Aston Villa have officially confirmed online sportsbook operator 8Xbet as the club's Official Betting Partner in Asia. The regional partnership aims to bolster the Premier League side's commercial reach across the Far East through localized digital campaigns, fan engagement activations, and branded assets.

The agreement follows Aston Villa's recent pre-season tour across Asia and replaces their previous regional collaboration with NOVA88. 8Xbet is already well known within English football, having previously secured regional Asian betting partnerships with clubs such as Manchester City and Chelsea.

As Premier League regulations place tighter restrictions on front-of-shirt gambling sponsorships in the domestic UK market, clubs increasingly look toward geo-targeted overseas partnerships to maintain commercial revenue in Asian territories.

A closer look at kits across various European leagues reveals an interesting detail about how Adidas equips goalkeepers. While Adidas strictly tiers its outfield kits - reserving authentic player-issue shirts primarily for elite partner clubs—goalkeepers across nearly all tiers are provided with authentic base templates, which clubs then customize themselves.

Adidas produces authentic player-issue versions of its standard goalkeeper teamwear templates, such as the Tiro Competition line. These shirts feature lightweight performance fabrics, authentic badge, and heat-applied Adidas logos straight from the manufacturer. Because the base templates are standardized across the brand's roster, clubs simply take the blank authentic shirts and apply their own crests, sponsor graphics, and competition badges in-house, usually via heat press.

This workflow explains why goalkeepers at clubs outside the top tier, such as Ajax, 1. FC Köln, or Leeds United, can often be seen wearing authentic-spec shirts on the pitch, even when their outfield teammates wear standard replica-spec jerseys with stitched crests. It provides a cost-effective and practical solution for both the manufacturer and the clubs, ensuring all goalkeepers receive top-level performance apparel regardless of their club's commercial tier.

Italian Serie D club Piacenza Calcio and technical sponsor EYE Sport have officially unveiled their new away and third shirts for the 2026-27 campaign, completing the club's wardrobe following the recent release of the home kit.

The Piacenza 2026-27 away jersey combines a clean white base with subtle tonal sublimated graphics and accents in gold and red. The crew collar and patterned sleeve cuffs provide refined touches of color, while the historic Latin phrase "URBS AEMILIAE PRINCEPS" is inscribed across the upper back beneath the collar in gold lettering.

In contrast, the EYE Sport Piacenza 26-27 third jersey delivers a bold, modern aesthetic. Predominantly black, the shirt features striking yellow and gold accents, complemented by an intricate graphic print composed of geographic coordinates and textured patterns across the body and sleeves. Both jerseys are finished with matching monochrome club crests and contrasting sponsor applications.
