Maybe if another club had adopted this design, fans would’ve loved it. But because the Barcelona shirt is known in a certain way, fans don’t want something very different from the original. Clubs are known to experiment with the away and third kits, but the home kit must feel like home. This 19/20 kit was a red and blue checkerboard with blue sleeves, and it goes down in history as one of the most eccentric shirts Barcelona put out.
