The third Kit of Real Madrid for the next 2025/26 season has been disclosed – and it is a striking reminder in the Cristiano Ronaldo era at the Santiago Bernabéu.
The kit is mainly in deep blue, supplemented by crunchy white details, in particular the classic Adidas Trefoil logo, the “Emirates” sponsor and the three emblematic stripes of the brand on each shoulder.
According to a reliable kit outlet Football titlesThe design is directly inspired by the new seats installed in the Bernabéu – part of a large renovation project completed at the end of 2024. The bold blue tone reflects the modern aesthetic of the renovated stadium while nodding the head of the rich past of Madrid.
The kit also presents a famous sentence engraved both in the jock label and the interior necklace: “90 minuti in El Bernabéu son Molto Longo” – a quote that translates by “90 minutes at Bernabéu, it’s very long.”
The sentence was invented by the legend of the Juanito club after a 2-0 defeat in the first leg against the Inter in the 1986 European Cup. While the Madrid team left the field, Juanito warned one of the players of Inter to what to expect the return match in Chamartín. His words fell into folklore after Madrid overturned the deficit dramatically at home.

Interestingly, the last time Real wore a shade of similar blue was in the 2017/18 season – Cristiano Ronaldo’s last campaign with the club before his move to Juventus. However, this new 2025/26 design is more like the exterior strip 2013/14, which was also a rich blue with white accents, including stripes.
This 2013/14 season was memorable for Ronaldo and the club. The Portuguese striker scored 51 goals in all competitions and helped Los Blancos to capture the titles of COPA Del Rey and UEFA in the Champions League. He ended the campaign by winning the Ballon d’Or for the third time in his career.
Although this new third kit guarantees that Real Madrid will look like the game next season, the hope among the fans is that the team can resume the domination of these years of Ronaldo peak – in particular after a disappointing 2024/25 campaign which ended without silverware.
