In the UEFA Champions League, Barcelona captains always take the pitch wearing two captain's armbands at the same time, one issued by UEFA and another representing the club.
This tradition dates back to around 2012, when UEFA introduced official captain's armbands across its club competitions. Under Article 42, Paragraph 42.01 (h) of the UEFA Kit and Equipment Regulations, armbands are prohibited from displaying decorative elements other than the word "Captain" or an abbreviation thereof.
Because Barcelona's iconic armband prominently features the four red stripes of the Catalan flag (Senyera), club captains wear a standardized UEFA armband alongside it to ensure full regulatory compliance.
For over a decade, from Carles Puyol, Xavi, Andrés Iniesta, Lionel Messi to Raphinha has maintained this tradition in the Champions League. Look closely, they almost always wear the Senyera armband on the outside.

FC Barcelona are set to sport their 26-27 third kit when they travel to face Paris Saint-Germain in the UEFA Champions League at the Parc des Princes on Tuesday, according to reliable club insider memorabilia1899.
The decision comes down to visual contrast under UEFA kit regulations. Both Barcelona's traditional Blaugrana home kit and their darker away option clash with PSG's classic dark navy home shirt. Turning to the alternate strip ensures clear distinction for players, referees, and television viewers alike.
Barcelona's 26-27 Nike third kit features a fresh green and teal color scheme, providing the ideal light contrast against the French champions. While the club has not released an official match-day announcement yet, the fixture will give the retro-styled third strip another prominent European outing under the floodlights in Paris.

FC Barcelona has officially launched a brand new retro collection paying homage to one of the most celebrated eras in club history: the 1992-1995 Dream Team period. Fronted by first-team stars Pedri, Gavi, and Raphinha, the release takes heavy inspiration from the classic home kit worn under legendary manager Johan Cruyff during an era defined by domestic dominance and European glory.
The centerpiece of the capsule is the 1992-95 retro shirt, which recreates the aesthetic of the iconic 1990s Kappa design without Kappa logos. It features traditional wide blaugrana vertical stripes, an authentic spread polo collar, and an all-over tonal jacquard pattern woven into the fabric. As an in-house club production rather than an official Kappa reissue, the original manufacturer branding and sleeve tape have been replaced with a stylish cursive "Barça" script on the chest and repeated along the sleeves.
Complementing the jersey, the retro capsule also includes matching blue shorts with branded side striping, an 1899 striped knitted sweater, and period-inspired socks, alongside optional #10 printing on the back of the shirt.
The Barcelona 1992-95 retro collection is available now exclusively through the official Barça online store and physical club shops, with the flagship shirt priced at €69.99.

FC Barcelona Femení gave the on-pitch debut to the special FC Barcelona x Spotify x Tyler, The Creator GOLF WANG shirt during their Liga F clash against Granada on Saturday. The jersey replaces the standard Spotify sponsor branding across the chest with the bold gold typographic "GOLF" logo of Tyler's streetwear label, applied onto the club's 26-27 home shirt.
The women's team appearance served as the curtain-raiser for the collaboration just one day ahead of the men's side wearing the look in El Clásico against Real Madrid. The takeover forms part of Spotify's recurring artist partnership for marquee fixtures, though this project granted Tyler expanded creative direction across both the match kits and a full retro-inspired lifestyle capsule.

FC Barcelona and American luxury fashion house AMIRI have officially unveiled their formalwear collection for the 26-27 season. Marking the second chapter of the five-year partnership agreed through 2029-30, the new wardrobe delivers bespoke off-pitch attire for the men's and women's first teams as well as club leadership for official travel and finals.
The centerpiece of the player wardrobe is a tailored grey multi-stripe wool suit. The jacket features a double-breasted two-button cut with sharp peak lapels, custom MA pins, and a commemorative woven patch on the sleeve cuff. It is paired with gently flared trousers, a classic striped Oxford shirt, and a rich garnet silk tie that nods to the club's blaugrana colors.
The standout item in the collection is a deep garnet lambskin leather blouson featuring a shirt-style collar and a sporty profile. The back of the jacket is decorated with a heavily embossed Barça crest and lettering, complemented by subtle details inspired by Catalan heritage. The capsule is rounded out by matching embossed leather luggage and refined steel-grey suits with double-breasted wool overcoats for club executives.
