Barcelona unveil 2026-27 home kit with gradient stripes

Barcelona have released their new home kit for the 2026-27 season, introducing a gradient design on the classic blaugrana stripes. The jersey was unveiled at an event at the Museum of Contemporary Art of Barcelona (MACBA) on Tuesday.

The kit retains the iconic blue and garnet vertical stripes, but each stripe now features three shades of the respective colour, creating a dynamic effect. According to the club, the design mirrors the exterior of the renovated Camp Nou, where Barcelona returned to play last season after a two-year spell at the Olympic Stadium.

Design and launch event

Players Lamine Yamal, Raphinha and Pedri modeled the new shirt at the MACBA event. The launch comes while the FIFA World Cup is still ongoing, as Barcelona look ahead to the 2026-27 campaign.

• New home kit features a colour gradient within the blue and garnet stripes.

• Unveiled at MACBA in Barcelona on Tuesday.

Champions League ambitions

Barcelona have not won the Champions League since 2015, suffering semifinal and quarterfinal exits in recent seasons. After back-to-back LaLiga titles under Hansi Flick, the club is determined to secure a sixth European crown. The women's team, meanwhile, will also wear the new kit as they aim to continue their dominance, having won the Champions League four times in six years, though stars Alexia Putellas, Mapi León, Ona Batlle and Salma Paralluelo have all left the club.

With a revamped stadium and a fresh kit, Barcelona's young squad will now look to end their Champions League drought in the coming season.
