Barcelona have a long and illustrious relationship with Nike kits.

They may be trailing Real Madrid in the race for La Liga, but it doesn’t detract from the fact Barcelona are one of the greatest teams of recent times.

It’s impossible to look at the kits and avoid memories of the fantastic players who have worn them over the years. An example:

Pep Guardiola and Luis Figo in 1999-2000, Carles Puyol in the Noughties kits, and Thierry Henry in Guardiola’s greatest team.
