Barca to wear never-before-seen kit for Clasico with logo of world famous band

BARCELONA will wear a special shirt for the El Clasico next month.

Hansi Flick’s side have made a sensational start to the domestic season, winning all six of their LaLiga games and scoring 22 goals in the process.

Their brilliant run has opened up a four-point advantage to second-place Real Madrid at the top of the table.

It means they are likely to go into the Clasico at the Bernabeu on October 27 with a lead in the title race.

And, according to Sport, the high-stakes match will see Barcelona wear a limited edition kit with British rock band Coldplay’s logo on it.

This is in keeping with the deal the Catalan giants have with Spotify – the name sponsor of the Camp Nou.

They have previously worn shirts promoting the likes of The Rolling Stones, Shakira and Drake.

Now it is set to be Coldplay’s turn as they prepare to release their new album “Moon Music” on October 4.

The logo that will go on the shirt has yet to be revealed, but SunSport has mocked up a picture of what it could look like.

Coldplay, who played four concerts in Barcelona last year, have an affiliation with the football club that goes back to Pep Guardiola’s time as manager.

During that hugely successful period, the band’s song “Viva la Vida” became a song regularly played in the Nou Camp following Barcelona’s various triumphs.

Speaking about their connection to the club in an interview last year, Coldplay guitarist Jonny Buckland said: “I did know about Barca and I remember reading about it at the time and thinking ‘how cool’.

“They were the best team on the planet at that time and they played football from another galaxy and it’s interesting because this song [Viva la Vida] really took shape in Barcelona.

“We love playing it, especially here where it was born and where it has such a special meaning.”

“Viva la Vida” was also played after Barcelona’s final game before they left the Nou Camp as renovations began on the stadium.

They are hoping to move back in before the end of the year.

In the meantime, they have been playing their games at the Olympic Stadium.
