Jan 20, 2023, by Dewa
English striker Danny Ings has officially joined West Ham United from Aston Villa in this January transfer window, but that's not the only thing that's grabbing people's attention on social media.
There are only 4 English teams with claret and blue kits, and now Ings has played for three of them

By joining West Ham, Ings will be playing for his third club that wears the claret and blue as their home kit.
Only Scunthorpe United "are missing on his list"
The Hammers, just like Villa also have claret and blue as their main home kit color. Moreover, Ings actually made his name in English Football while playing for a third claret and blue side, Burnley from 2011 to 2015.

Aside from those three teams in England, Scunthorpe United are also known to wear claret and blue as their home kit.
Ings has been getting plenty of playing time so far this season with Villa, but Unai Emery's arrival seems to change the situation. The Spanish coach doesn't consider he 30-year-old forward an important part of his side. So far this season, Ings has grabbed six goals from 18 appearances in the Premier League. Meanwhile, West Ham as a team have only netted 15 teams
Clubs Danny Ings Played For With No Claret & Blue Kits
Although he seems to have a thing for the claret and blue teams, Ings has also played for teams that have other colors - Bournemouth, Dorchester Town, Liverpool, and Southampton. Only one team, Dorchester Town (he played 9 games for them), did not have any red or claret in their kit.
Ings could make his debut tomorrow

No More Nike: Adidas Croatia 2026 Training Kits Revealed
Following their switch from Nike to Adidas, Croatia's new training kit set for 2026 have been unveiled in the latest training camp for youth teams' goalkeepers.
However from what we've seen, both of the new jerseys are simply from Adidas Tiro 26 League template range, using default black and grey color choices. These are very likely just temporary options for the mean time, until the actual designs with probably bespoke colorways are officially released.

FC Barcelona 26-27 Third Kit Font Leaked
Following the leak of FC Barcelona's 26-27 third kit, kit expert @memorabilia1899 has provided a first look at the custom typeface that will feature on the back of the jersey. The bespoke font design continues Nike's trend of pairing unique typography with its high-profile club kit releases for the season.
The typography features a sharp, geometric design with clean blocky angles for the player numbers, rendered in dark navy blue and bordered by a bright red outline. The player name is printed in arched, bold sans-serif lettering using the same color scheme, perfectly matching the teal body and red trim of the shirt.
This custom typeface will be worn on Barcelona's 26-27 third kit during cup fixtures and selected league games where customized fonts are permitted. The contrasting red outline gives the player names and numbers clear visibility against the light teal graphic backdrop.
