Real Madrid to Keep Modern Logo for 24-25 Third Kit, Defying Adidas Elite Lineup

Like in the 23-24 season, Real Madrid will keep their modern logo for the third kit in the 24-25 season. All other current Adidas Elite teams use a retro logo or special "icon" crest.

The Adidas 24-25 Elite Team third kits, set to be released in August next year, will feature the classic Trefoil logo, plus unique crests for all teams except for Madrid. Bayern Munich, Juventus, Arsenal, and Manchester United all have different logos for their third kits in the 24-25 season. It remains to be seen if Flamengo, the sixth current Elite team, will again use a special logo for their third kit.

Indeed, Juventus will be using a retro logo for the first time in 2024-25 with these classic-inspired third kits. In the 23-24 season, Juventus used the modern (and often hated) logo. While many likely hoped that Madrid would incorporate retro logos into their kit for the 24-25 season, the club have chosen to stick with their modern logo.

Real Madrid Logo History - via Football Kit Archive

In case you were not aware - it's not that Madrid do not have fitting classic logos. The first-ever logo, featuring the letters M, C, and F, could be a great option. The 1941-1998 crest, meanwhile, looks very similar to the current logo in duo colors - it would only make sense to have it in the original colors.
