For the 2024-2025 season, Adidas brings back the classic Trefoil logo for its Elite Team third kits. Now we can leak that the kits will not only come with the classic Trefoil branding but also with a specially designed Trefoil authentic badge.
We can spot the Adidas Trefoil authentic kit badge on the leaked image of the new Arsenal 24-25 third kit. Based on the blurry photo, we have created a high-res edit of it.
Adidas 24-25 Trefoil Authentic Kit Badge
The Adidas 2024 authentic badge has a white and golden color scheme, fitting the premium feel of authentic kits.
Material-wise, we expect the Adidas Trefoil authentic badge to be very similar to if not the same, the standard authentic badge.
It remains to be seen whether Adidas also created a black variant of the authentic badge, as they did for the regular one. The dark variant would exceptionally fit Juventus and Manchester United.

We will officially see the reveal of the Adidas Trefoil authentic football kit badge with the launch of the Trefoil third kits in August/September 2024.

Arsenal Expands Google Partnership to Include Gemini AI in £7m/Year Deal
Arsenal have renewed and expanded their commercial partnership with Google, securing Google Pixel as the club's Official Smartphone Partner while introducing Google Gemini as their Official Consumer AI Assistant Partner. According to sports business reports, the lucrative three-year contract is valued at around £7 million per season.
The agreement builds on the collaboration originally established in August 2023, which saw Google Pixel produce matchday digital content and exclusive behind-the-scenes access for supporters. The new phase will see Google Gemini integrated into the club's digital channels to provide AI-assisted fan experiences and matchday engagement across both the men's and women's teams, alongside continued Pixel camera activations.
Arsenal's renewal is part of a coordinated push by Google across elite European football. Over recent weeks, the tech company has rolled out similar multi-year partnerships incorporating both Pixel and Gemini with top clubs such as Liverpool, Bayern Munich, Paris Saint-Germain, and Barcelona.
Monopoli 26-27 Centenary Kit Released
Italian Serie C club SS Monopoli 1966 and kit supplier Joma have officially unveiled a special centenary kit celebrating 100 years since the arrival of football in the city (1926-2026). Branded as the 'Special Kit 100 Audace', the shirt pays homage to the historic Audace Monopoli team and the roots of the local game.
Stepping away from the club's traditional green and white palette, the Joma Monopoli 2026-27 centenary jersey adopts a classic black-and-white striped design. The kit features a retro-inspired collar construction, a golden Joma logo on the chest, and an archival Monopoli crest. Subtle tonal jacquard graphics are woven directly into the fabric.

São Paulo Feminino 26-27 Third Kit Released - First-Ever Exclusive Women's Kit
São Paulo FC and New Balance have officially unveiled the new third kit for the club's women's team. Marking a historic milestone for the Tricolor Paulista, this release represents the first time the Brazilian club has designed a third shirt exclusively for São Paulo Feminino.
The New Balance São Paulo 26-27 women's third jersey arrives in an elegant lilac base inspired by the lotus flower, symbolizing strength, resilience, and the power to flourish in adverse conditions. The lower portion of the shirt is adorned with a delicate watermark pattern of blooming lotus petals that fades subtly into the fabric. In addition, the kit features a commemorative lotus icon on the upper back and the embroidered phrase "Somos Lótus, Somos Luta" on the shoulder.
Contrasting deep purple details highlight the V-neck collar, sleeve trims, and sponsor branding, while the club crest and New Balance logo are applied with a 3D TPU glazed finish. Built with moisture-wicking NB Dry fabric made from 100% recycled polyester, the kit is completed by dark purple shorts and socks.

Special Detail on the FA Community Shield Sleeve Patch
The sleeve patch worn during recent 2026 FA Community Shield match featured a unique, customized touch: the ribbon running across the shield was split into red and sky blue, representing the primary colors of Arsenal and Manchester City.
This bespoke ribbon colorway tradition first debuted at the 2015 FA Community Shield in the clash between Arsenal and Chelsea.
The only exceptions to this colored-ribbon tradition occurred in 2020 (Arsenal vs. Liverpool) and 2025 (Crystal Palace vs. Liverpool), where the ribbons on the patch were rendered in neutral white. This adjustment is believed to be the FA's standard protocol to maintain visual balance when both competing clubs share the same primary kit color (red).
Another unique scenario took place in 2021. Even though Manchester City wore their away kit against Leicester City, the patch still featured both clubs' traditional home colors. This was possible because City’s sky blue and Leicester’s royal blue possess distinguishable shades.

Gianluigi Donnarumma Prefers Replica Kits
During the 2026 FA Community Shield, Gianluigi Donnarumma was once again spotted wearing a replica jersey on the pitch rather than an authentic player-issue shirt. Details such as the embroidered crest and the standard dryCELL branding confirmed his kit choice.
This marks the second consecutive season since joining Manchester City that the Italian goalkeeper has opted for the replica version. The reason stems from Puma's player-issue shirts featuring a tighter, more athletic cut, whereas Donnarumma prefers a looser, roomier fit for maximum comfort and freedom of movement.

Rodri to Wear Number 16 at FC Barcelona
Incoming FC Barcelona signing Rodri is set to wear his trademark number 16 jersey following his big-money switch from Manchester City. The Spanish international midfielder has built an iconic association with the number throughout his career at club level with Manchester City and on the international stage with Spain.
The number 16 shirt had previously belonged to young midfielder Fermín López. Following direct conversations between the players, Fermín has agreed to vacate the number and switch to the number 7 shirt, allowing Rodri to take his favored jersey ahead of the 26-27 season.
