Chelsea 25-26 Kit Overloaded with Logos After Clean Start
- Clean Kit Debut: Chelsea's 2025-26 home kit started as a clean design without a main sponsor at the FIFA Club World Cup.
- Logo Overload: Throughout the season, Chelsea added multiple logos including a sleeve sponsor, FIFA Champions badge, and a new main sponsor (IFS.ai), cluttering the kit's original design.
- Availability: The new kit version with the IFS.ai sponsor is displayed in club stores but is not yet available for online purchase.
Chelsea FC began the 2025-26 season with a refreshingly clean home kit made by Nike. When the club debuted the shirt at the FIFA Club World Cup, it was worn without a main sponsor, giving the design a rare, uncluttered look. That clean aesthetic did not last long.
Chelsea's Never-Ending Addition of New Logos on their Kit During Season
For the final matches of the FIFA Club World Cup, Chelsea added a sleeve sponsor specifically for the tournament. After winning the tournament, the new golden FIFA Champions badge has been added to the chest. The circular badge is bigger than the team's badge, already imbalancing the kit.
Chelsea Kit As It Started And Available to Buy
Since then, further commercial elements have been added. A new sleeve sponsor has been added (FPT), and the club has now introduced a new main shirt sponsor, IFS. However, IFS decided that they MUST add an .ai to their logo to promote their new AI platform, making it further unbalanced. The result is a shirt that is now heavily covered in logos compared to its original launch version.
Interestingly, the version with the new main sponsor has been displayed in official club stores (it does not look good, really), but it is not yet available for online purchase.

What started as one of the cleanest Chelsea home kits in recent years has gradually become much busier, with multiple commercial additions significantly altering the original look.
We created a mockup with one of Chelsea's most popular sponsors, Samsung. It just fits so much better.

Neymar to Retain Brazil No. 10 Shirt for 2026 World Cup
The debate over Brazil’s most iconic shirt number has been officially settled ahead of the 2026 World Cup. It has been confirmed that Neymar will retain the famous No. 10 jersey for the upcoming tournament in North America.
Following a lengthy period away from the national team due to injury, questions had naturally arisen regarding the future of the prestigious shirt. During Neymar's prolonged absence, the Brazilian No. 10 was shared among the squad's other attacking stars. Both Vinicius Junior and Raphinha have donned the historic number in recent international fixtures.
Despite their growing influence and status within the Seleção, both players have willingly stepped aside out of respect for the veteran forward. Highlighting the squad's unity on the matter, Vinicius Junior openly addressed the situation, stating clearly that the shirt "obviously belongs to Neymar."
Earlier rumors suggested that Neymar might adopt the No. 13 jersey.
Do you agree with the decision to keep Neymar in the No. 10 shirt, or was it time to pass it on to a younger player like Vinicius Junior? Let us know in the comments below.

Liverpool 26-27 Home Kit Water Bottle Released
The official Liverpool FC online store has released an interesting "LFC 26/27 Home Water Bottle".
The design of the water bottle mirrors the home kit. The front of the bottle also displays the Liverbird crest and the current Standard Chartered sponsor logo - however, it lacks the Adidas logo and looks very offset. They should have placed logos differently...
The text "Liverpool FC 26-27" is printed on the bottle in the new official Liverpool font.
