This is the first time that the club will have four jerseys in a season. Both men’s and Women’s teams will be using the jersey for certain league fixtures in the season. The new design features a modern look in which the four red stripes appear diagonally across a yellow background. The jersey will have retro V-neck while the shorts will remain yellow, similar to the shirt. The tagline ‘It’s deep within us’ is to bring to mind the essence of Barcelona and to invoke one of the main factors in being ‘More than a Club’, namely being proud to belong to Barcelona and Catalonia. “It is an honour to wear the flag, the four stripes, on the shirt,” said Sergi Roberto, one of Barcelona’s first team captain and a product of the clubs famous La Masia academy. La Liga 2019: Levante Has 'Special Plans' for India.
