In the new Boca jersey there may be a reference to Maradona

According to FootyHeadlines, there may be a reference to Diego Armando Maradona on the next Boca Juniors adidas Home jersey. El Peluda played at Bombonera for three seasons: one at the beginning of his career (1981-82) and two at the end (from '95 to '97), and he retired playing with the Xeneises. In reference to that period, Boca and adidas - which is this year took over Nike as technical sponsor of the Buenos Aires team - thought of creating a connection with Maradona's first year at Bombonera.
This one from adidas could be an interesting operation. The German brand, due to the past that link it to the Xeneises, has in its hands a lot of material to be able to do excellent work at Bombonera. In addition, this connects to the increased presence of adidas in Argentina (the Boca, the River, the National team), taking the place, in some clubs, of Nike.
