It's a choice of strong personality, in line with the announcement of the first font entirely designed by the club for the next Champions League jerseys. A tribute to the great tradition of the Spanish team and a color scheme used with some variations also in other recent seasons, such as in 2008/2009, the year in which the Guardiola team won the Treble.
