Barcelona will wear special ‘Rolling Stones’ jersey for El Clasico against Real Madrid

FC Barcelona has officially announced that they will wear a ‘special jersey’ of the legendary band The Rolling Stones. The jersey will also depict the group’s logo for the upcoming El Clasico against Real Madrid.

“FC Barcelona and Spotify have done it again. The jersey Barça will wear for El Clásico on 28 October will once again become an iconic garment that is set to grab worldwide attention,” the statement read.

“The Tongue and Lips logo of The Rolling Stones (Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, and Ronnie Wood) will replace the Spotify logo on the legendary FC Barcelona kit, putting the band that has played the iconic stages of the world on the global stage of El Clásico for the first time.”

The La Liga giants agreed a deal with music platform Spotify last season and as a part of the agreement, the players will wear shirts depicting logos and symbols of famous music artists.
