"Seeing my new album Play on the Barca shirt is something I'm proud of. I'm a big fan of football and Barcelona. I love that we get to merge the worlds of music and football in such a fun way."
"Ed's songs have been part of our dressing-room playlist for a long time, so seeing his new album on the front of our shirts feels really special."
Barcelona will wear a special edition shirt featuring iconography from Ed Sheeran's eighth album, Play, for the Clásico at the Santiago Bernabéu on Oct. 26. The women's team will wear the same jersey on Oct. 19 in their Liga F match against Granada. The design replaces the Spotify logo as part of the club's ongoing Spotify sponsorship and continues a series that has included Drake, Rosalía, The Rolling Stones, KAROL G, Coldplay and Travis Scott. Barcelona will sell 1,899 limited edition jerseys and launch merchandise tied to the Play imagery. Players expressed approval of the collaboration, and Sheeran has existing football links as a minority investor in Ipswich Town.
