FC Barcelona has faced a lot of issues lately as the financial situation at the club is not the best, which does not allow them to make some impressive signings during this summer transfer window. Next season will look very different since the club appointed Hansi Flick as their new manager, and the team will be wearing a new kit for the new season. The issue is that the club has yet to present the new kit, and some fans are worried that there is still no information about the new jersey. Last year, they presented the new jersey on June 15th, and now, officially, over a year after the reveal of the new kit, Barça fans are waiting for the one the players will wear next season. Relevo reveals that the reason why the new kit has not been revealed is because the club is working to close an agreement with Nike for a new deal and problems with a change of Spotify's typography. The way how the new Spotify Logo looks is slightly different from the old one.

Leaks of the new jersey have been filtered online, and in the past few months, there were rumors that the Catalan club was no longer going to work with Nike on their jerseys. There was no agreement with the pay FC Barcelona was receiving from Nike even though they are reportedly one of the best-paid clubs with their sponsorships.

Barcelona would be receiving more than $190 million a year with their new deal with Nike. The Catalan club will also receive a $100 million signing bonus for agreeing to the deal. The reveal of the new kit is expected to be in late June or early July, which is a few weeks away.
