Jude Bellingham was among the spectators at St Andrew's for Birmingham City's pre-season friendly against Barcelona, wearing the club's new 2026-27 home shirt with his iconic No. 22 on the back.
The Real Madrid midfielder came through Birmingham City's academy before completing a then-club-record £26 million move to Borussia Dortmund in 2020. The transfer played a key role in helping Birmingham overcome a difficult financial period.
Despite spending just one season with the first team, the club later made the unprecedented decision to permanently retire the No. 22 shirt in his honour, cementing Bellingham's status as one of the greatest academy graduates in Birmingham City's history.

Birmingham City's new home shirt for the 26-27 season has been released, showcasing a simple retro-inspired look alongside a new main front-of-shirt sponsor, Coral.
The Birmingham 26-27 home kit features a classic royal blue base accompanied by a traditional polo collar with subtle white trim accents. Inside the neckline, the shirt displays the club's familiar Keep Right On motto. A white Nike Swoosh sits on the right chest opposite the iconic Birmingham City crest, while Coral's logo occupies the main chest position in place of previous sponsor Undefeated.
