This season’s not even over yet, but we’re already getting a sneak peek at what the top clubs might be wearing next year. In the case of Real Madrid, a leaked image has fans buzzing: unofficial pictures of what could be the new 2025-26 home shirt are already doing the rounds on social media.

A design that blends tradition and a modern touch

The design, leaked by the specialist site Footy Headlines, sticks to the club’s classic all-white look but adds a few new details. The round collar is back, giving the kit a clean and classy vibe, while Adidas’s signature three stripes appear in grey across the shoulders. Thin yellow lines on the sides bring a fresh and dynamic look, inspired by some of the club’s iconic past jerseys.

The new shirt clearly nods to the 2009-10 season—Cristiano Ronaldo’s first year with Real Madrid. The golden shoulder accents are a throwback to that era, and some fans also see it as a subtle tribute to the revamped Santiago Bernabéu, whose metallic finish seems to have inspired the golden detail that runs down to the chest. It also calls back to the 2006-07 and 2007-08 kits.

Still waiting for official confirmation

There’s been no official word from the club just yet, but given the reputation of the source, the leak looks pretty legit. No info has been released about the away or third kits either, so Madridistas are keeping a close eye out for any updates.

With this new design, Real Madrid seem to be going for a mix of nostalgia and modern flair—revisiting elements from the recent past and giving them a fresh twist that’s bound to make waves once it becomes official.
