Burnley Forced to Wear Ajax Socks in 26-27 Pre-Season Friendly
An unusual kit mishap occurred during the pre-season friendly between Ajax and Burnley at the Johan Cruyff Arena on July 26, 2026. Burnley lined up in their light blue Castore change kit for the match, but a kit color clash forced the English side into an unexpected equipment modification right before kickoff.
With Ajax wearing their traditional red and white home kit paired with white socks, Burnley's kit management only had white socks available, creating an obvious sock clash. To allow the match to proceed smoothly, Ajax came to the rescue by lending Burnley a set of their dark blue Adidas socks.
Burnley players wore the dark blue Ajax socks throughout the match, with many players cutting off the lower foot section to wear them as sleeves over their white grip socks. Consequently, the Ajax branding and Adidas logo were clearly visible on the legs of Burnley's players during the game, which eventually ended in a 2-1 win for Ajax.

Slovak champions ŠK Slovan Bratislava have officially unveiled their new 26-27 kit made by Adidas, dubbed the 'Heart of Bratislava' (Srdce Bratislavy). The design blends club identity with key historical symbols of the Slovakian capital.
The kit comes in a royal blue base highlighted by gold details, including the iconic Adidas three stripes on the shoulders, gold main sponsor branding, and gold player names and numbers on the back. The choice of gold pays homage to Bratislava's coronation history as the official crowning city for Hungarian monarchs over nearly three centuries.
Several bespoke elements are incorporated directly into the fabric. The lower front features an embossed graphic of the iconic Bratislava Castle, while a subtle atmospheric graphic pattern across the upper front represents the Danube River flowing through the heart of the city.
