Juventus 2026/27 home, away and third kit details leaked

The 2025/26 season may have only just kicked off, but Juventus are seemingly already looking a year ahead – at least when it comes to fashion.

According to long-running kit insiders La Maglia Bianconera, the club already has a clear vision of what their home, away, and third kits will look like for the 2026/27 campaign.

The home shirt, made by adidas, is said to take inspiration from the 1976/77 design, featuring classic black and white stripes with the potential addition of gold trim and logos for a touch of luxury.

The away kit will go pink, paying homage to Juveâ€s earliest colours, and will reportedly include both the retro adidas Trefoil logo and a stylised zebra crest – a bold nod to the clubâ€s roots.

As for the third option, Juventus are expected to go with a predominantly black design, detailed with shades of gold and grey. According to the leaks, this concept is tied to a theme of “youth†and carries a more modern, edgy aesthetic.

La Maglia Bianconera also shared early design mock-ups, giving fans a glimpse of whatâ€s to come – though itâ€s worth remembering that final versions could still change before release.

The leaks arrive shortly after Juventus†third kit for the current season also surfaced online.

Footy Headlines share that the shirt will be almost entirely black with vanilla logos, green collars and cuffs trimmed with dark purple, and a vine-leaf pattern across the front – reportedly inspired by Piedmontâ€s famous vineyards.

Pep Guardiola reveals what Oasis frontman Liam Gallagher is really like

Oasis frontman Liam Gallagher has long held a reputation for being one of the feistiest characters in the music business – never afraid to speak his mind and never backing down from a confrontation.

Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola, however, got a rare glimpse of what the “Wonderwall” singer is like behind closed doors, and itâ€s a far cry from the hard-nosed reputation.

Guardiola attended Oasis’ homecoming gig at Heaton Park earlier this year – the bandâ€s first show on home turf since 2009 – with his daughter Maria. There, he not only soaked in the atmosphere and sang along to the hits, he also got the chance to meet the Gallagher brothers, both well-known Manchester City supporters, and their families.

Though familiar with Noel Gallagher, who often attends games at the Etihad, it was Guardiolaâ€s first time meeting Liam, and heâ€s now opened up about the experience.

“Itâ€s the first time I knew Liam,” he said (viaThe Mirror). “Noel Iâ€ve been with many times but Liam I never met before and I met him before the concert and he was so kind.â€

On the gig itself, Guardiola couldnâ€t have been more complimentary, describing Oasis as “the best rock band in the last 50 years†while taking the opportunity to compare them to his own City side.

“I donâ€t know how many countries they sold out but that means how good they have been,” he said. “When (people) say this team will be one of the best, I always say, ‘Ask me after 25 yearsâ€. Then if people still talk about that team, it was a good team.â€

He added: “Itâ€s like Oasis, no? They come back again and sold out all around the world, it is because they are good. Otherwise, itâ€s not sold out.â€

Even the biggest rock legends have a softer side, it seems.

Cole Palmer in bizarre ‘Cold Palmer’ trademark battle with famous French vineyard

Cole Palmer has found himself in a legal tussle most football fans never expected: the Chelsea star is going head-to-head with Château Palmer, a prestigious French vineyard, over his attempt to trademark his nickname.

The England midfielder had applied to trademark his iconic “ice cold†goal celebration and accompanying moniker “Cold Palmer”, aiming to launch a range of products including clothing, toiletries, and even alcoholic drinks, according to The Sun.

However, the Bordeaux-based vineyard, whose bottles can sell for thousands of pounds, has formally opposed the application, arguing that Palmerâ€s plans could infringe on their established brand.

The dispute is now with the UK Intellectual Property Office, which will review submissions from both sides before making a ruling.

The wine firm was founded in 1814 after British Army officer Charles Palmer acquired the estate, known at the time as Château de Gascq. He late expanded the vineyards and renamed it after himself.

Cole Palmer, meanwhile, is better known for his sparkling performances on the football pitch than his interest in wine. But in this legal showdown – Palmer vs. Palmer, Claret vs. Blue – his on-field brilliance might not be enough to tip the scales.

Eberechi Eze mural appears outside Emirates Stadium ahead of Arsenal move

Arsenal fans clearly canâ€t wait for Eberechi Eze to join their ranks.

Just hours after news broke of his imminent £60m move from Crystal Palace to north London, a massive mural of the England international appeared near the Emirates Stadium.

Eze, who helped Palace win the FA Cup last season, had been linked with Tottenham for months, with a verbal agreement seemingly in place. But in the ultimate transfer twist, Arsenal swooped in at the last minute to steal the 27-year-old from under their rivals†noses.

The mural, created by renowned street artist Northbanksy, shows Eze in an Arsenal shirt performing his signature goal celebration – crossing his fingers in front of him.

Northbanksy, a lifelong Arsenal supporter, shared the work on social media, proudly displaying it in his self-styled Arsenal street art gallery known as ‘The Tunnel.’

“Eberechi Eze of Arsenal Football Club,” he wrote on X alongside various snaps of the mural, including when selfie in which he imitated Eze’s pose.

While many Arsenal fans were quick to praise Northbanksy for his work and share their excitement Eze’s pending move to the club, some pointed out that Eze’s move hasn’t actuallybeen confirmed by either the Gunners or Palace just yet.

“Great work but I hope this doesn’t come back to haunt us,” commented one supporter. “We’re ridiculing Spurs fans after the deal fell through. We’ll be the laughing stock if this now doesn’t happen.”

Northbanksy, however, wasnâ€t phased by the potential backlash, offering a classic artistâ€s response: “Thatâ€s the risk I run.â€

Only time will tell if the mural will be a masterstroke or go down as one of the boldest, and most premature, statements in north London football history.

adidas and David Beckham unveil stunning pink Predator Elite boots

David Beckhamâ€s long-standing love affair with adidas Predator boots continues, with the legendary midfielder unveiling a striking new signature pair: the adidas Predator Elite by David Beckham.

Following the success of his first signature release in 2024, Beckham returns with a second design – this time in a bold, attention-grabbing pink.

The new boots fuse performance with personality, drawing inspiration from Beckhamâ€s own Major League Soccer team, Inter Miami, which he founded in 2018. A vivid pink upper is accented with the iconic three stripes in black and refined white details, giving the boot both a playful and premium feel.

Subtle nods to Beckhamâ€s history with the Predator line appear throughout. The insole is adorned with a pink Beckham graphic, and the design references the pink boots he wore during his MLS playing days in 2011, coinciding with the birth of his daughter Harper.

The signature fold-over tongue features the adidas logo alongside Beckhamâ€s personal branding in crisp white, while the pink elastic carries the PREDATOR logo, completing the look.

“When it came to designing this boot, I knew straight away it had to be pink,” Beckham said. “The pink design isnâ€t just a colour choice, itâ€s a statement – itâ€s having the confidence to stand out from the crowd. This boot, and the sneaker, inspired by my love of Miami, bring together performance, style and my personal taste.â€

The adidas Predator Elite by David Beckham will be showcased on-pitch by some of adidas†biggest names, including Pedri, Alessia Russo, Myles Lewis Skelly, Rodrigo De Paul, Éder Militão and Aitana Bonmati, cementing the bootâ€s status as both a style statement and a top-tier performance tool.

With its striking colourway and personal touches, Beckhamâ€s pink Predator Elite proves that in football, confidence is just as important as skill – and sometimes it comes in pink.
