Clasico Rivals Barcelona, Real Madrid Unveil Vibrant Third Jerseys for 2026–27 Season

Barcelona and Real Madrid have released their third jerseys for the upcoming 2026–27 season, with the defending champions opting for a vibrant teal design, while Los Blancos sport pink.

The new La Liga season is days away, with the campaign kicking off with Alavés against Getafe on Saturday, Aug. 15.

Neither Barcelona nor Real Madrid will be involved in this season’s opening weekend, with the two clubs granted a delayed start to the campaign due to the participation of their players in the latter stages of the summer’s World Cup.

Instead, Madrid will face Espanyol away on Saturday, Aug. 22, before Barça visit Elche the following day.

Still, excitement for the new season is gaining momentum fast, and the two giants have now completed their kit offerings for 2026–27 with the official release of their third jerseys.

This is the first time Madrid will wear a pink shirt since the 2020–21 season, when a fluorescent jersey served as the club’s away kit.

That kit remains popular despite featuring in a trophyless season for Madrid, who finished the campaign second in La Liga and semifinalists in the Champions League.

The new jersey also features “body-mapped 3D engineered fabrics that enhance fit, breathability and freedom of movement” and “adidas’ latest CLIMACOOL+ technology.”
