[Saba Sports News] According to British media, Barcelona has reached an agreement with British singer Ed Sheeran to release a collaborative jersey during the second round of La Liga’s El Clasico. The match between Barcelona and Real Madrid in La Liga’s 35th round is scheduled for May 11. As Camp Nou is still under construction, the venue for this match is yet to be confirmed. However, as has been the tradition in recent El Clásicos, there will be a prominent figure from the music industry. It is reported that Ed Sheeran’s name or logo is likely to be printed on the front of Barcelona’s jersey, as a result of Barcelona’s collaboration with Spotify. The report states that Barcelona has reached an agreement with Ed Sheeran to associate the British singer’s name with Spotify during the match against Real Madrid. Three weeks after the match, Ed Sheeran will kick off his European tour at Madrid’s Metropolitano Stadium. Ed Sheeran, who has a passion for football, purchased a 1.4% stake in Ipswich Town in May 2024 and even participated in designing the third kit. This season, Ipswich Town’s jerseys feature the logo of Ed Sheeran’s tour (+ — = ÷ X).
