"Autenthic": Napoli 25-26 Kits Feature Horrific Typo on Authentic Badge
- Typo on Authentic Badge: The new Napoli 2025-2026 kits have a spelling mistake on the 'authentic' badge, misspelling 'Authentic' as 'Autenthic'.
- Kits Affected: The spelling error appears on both the home and away kits.
- Response to Error: The official Napoli online store has removed images showing the misspelled badge, and it is unknown if the shirts will be recalled.
Following the launch of the new Napoli 2025-2026 home and away kits by EA7 last night, a rather embarrassing and careless error has been spotted on the authentic badge of the new jerseys.
Napoli 25-26 Home Kit Features Typo on Authentic Badge
The EA7 Napoli authentic badge, located at the hem of the jersey and designed to verify it as a player-issue product, features a significant spelling mistake. The word "Authentic" has been misspelled as "Autenthic".
This unfortunate typo has been printed on the badges of both the new home and away kits.
Napoli Removes Images From Store
In response to the error being discovered online, the official Napoli online store has since removed the close-up images that clearly showed the misspelled badge from their product listings. This action suggests that the club and EA7 are now aware of the mistake.
It is currently unknown how many thousands of jerseys have been produced with this error. The faulty shirts could either be recalled or potentially become unintentional "collector's items" for some fans.
This is a truly careless and forgettable error from EA7. For a major European club's kit launch, ensuring basic spelling is correct on an 'authenticity' badge should be the absolute minimum.

Puma Kit Durability Questioned Again as Julian Ryerson Suffers Ripped Shorts
Borussia Dortmund full-back Julian Ryerson suffered an unusual kit malfunction during BVB's 1-0 Bundesliga victory against VfB Stuttgart. Midway through the second half, the Norwegian international engaged in a physical duel with Stuttgart winger Jamie Leweling. As Leweling fell to the turf, he grabbed hold of Ryerson's shorts, completely tearing the outer seam apart and leaving the fabric hanging loose.
Ryerson initially attempted to carry on playing by knotting the shredded material at his hip. After repeatedly signaling toward the bench that the damaged kit could not hold up, he eventually made his way to the sideline. Second-choice goalkeeper Alexander Meyer rushed over to hand him a fresh pair, resulting in a brief moment where Ryerson was left in his base-layer yellow undershorts before donning the replacement gear and re-entering the pitch.
The incident has brought Puma's kit durability back under scrutiny. The German brand constructs its authentic elite kits using lightweight Ultraweave performance fabric, prioritizing minimal weight and high breathability. However, the delicate material has repeatedly faced criticism among supporters after tearing in high-intensity tussles, with Ryerson's mishap marking another visible tear on the Bundesliga stage this 26-27 season.
Monterrey Debuts Special Coca-Cola 100th Anniversary Kit Font
CF Monterrey sported a special commemorative nameset on their 26-27 Puma home kit during their Liga MX match against Cruz Azul at Estadio BBVA. The bespoke squad numbers and lettering were created in collaboration with longtime club partner Coca-Cola to celebrate the company's 100th anniversary in Mexico (1926-2026).
The font features an eye-catching textured look inspired by traditional Mexican artisan beadwork. Rendered in a bold red base adorned with intricate white, green, and red jewel-like accents reflecting the national flag, each number also integrates a subtle Rayados crest at the base. Positioned neatly above the numbers is the official red Coca-Cola 100 México anniversary script and lockup.
Alongside its on-pitch appearance with the first team, the commemorative nameset was released as an exclusive collector's edition. Only 100 supporters were given the opportunity to customize their 26-27 home shirt with the special font directly at the official Estadio BBVA club store.
Match-Worn Harry Kane Bayern Munich Kit Cut Up for Rare Topps Cards
Trading card manufacturer Topps has revealed a set of four ultra-rare trading cards created by cutting up a match-worn Harry Kane Bayern Munich jersey. Released as part of the 2025-26 Topps Museum Collection UEFA Club Competitions series, the cards take the striker's match-worn nameplate and divide it into four individual one-of-one collectibles.
Each card in the Museum Nameplate Relics subset houses a single letter from Kane's surname: "K", "A", "N", and "E". Embedded in a dedicated display window alongside a photo of Kane in Bayern colors, the fabric swatches highlight the cream-colored knit and deep red lettering from a Bayern kit, marked with official "Match-Worn Memorabilia" certification and UEFA Champions League branding.
While relic cards featuring match-worn gear have been popular in the hobby for years, deconstructing entire match-worn shirts to create cards regularly divides opinions among kit collectors who would rather see historic shirts preserved intact.
For high-end card enthusiasts, however, piecing together all four separate 1/1 cards to rebuild the complete nameplate is set to be one of the rarest pursuits in the collection.
