La Liga Announces Second Retro Matchday for 26-27 Season
Jul 1, 2026, by Chris
Following the success of its inaugural edition last season, La Liga has officially confirmed that the Retro Matchday will return for the 2026-27 campaign. The announcement was made as part of the official La Liga calendar reveal, highlighting the league's commitment to celebrating football heritage.
The second edition of the Retro Matchday is scheduled to take place on Matchday 31, which falls on the weekend of April 11, 2027. During this round of fixtures, all participating clubs are expected to wear special heritage kits inspired by classic designs from their past.
By announcing the date alongside the season's fixture list, La Liga has given clubs and their respective kit manufacturers approximately ten months of notice. In 2027, we expect all teams (maybe without Real Madrid) to take part.
Bayern München 26-27 Oktoberfest Kit Spotted for Sale
The upcoming Adidas Bayern München 26-27 Oktoberfest jersey has been spotted hanging on retail racks ahead of its official launch in September.
Moving away from the club's traditional Bavarian-inspired palettes and subtle motifs of previous years, the new Wiesn shirt introduces a radical look featuring a vibrant, multicolored abstract graphic set against a black base. The energetic design is complemented by off-white Three Stripes on the shoulders, the classic Adidas Trefoil logo, an ornate heritage Bayern Munich crest, and cream sponsor detailing.
Bukayo Saka and Yan Diomande Debut Whiteout New Balance Furon V9 Boots
Arsenal talisman Bukayo Saka and Real Madrid signing Yan Diomande have both taken to the pitch wearing all-white New Balance Furon V9 boots at the start of the 26-27 campaign. Thanks to @volkyfootballboots.v2 for spotting.
As two of the primary headline athletes for New Balance's flagship speed silo, their synchronized switch away from standard on-pitch colorways to a whiteout look points toward an upcoming limited-edition pack or special release from the American brand in the near future.
It’s normal that brands hide their new flagship-shoes with a whiteout colorway until their release takes place officially, so competitors can’t already get an early glimpse into their newest design.
FC Vizela 26-27 Away Kit Released
Liga Portugal 2 side FC Vizela has officially launched its new away kit for the 26-27 campaign, manufactured by Kappa. The jersey introduces a black base complemented by vibrant light blue accents across the V-neck collar, sleeve cuffs, and club crest. A standout element of the design is Kappa's signature Omini logo tape running down the side panels, paired with monochrome light blue sponsor detailing for a cohesive look.
