As the 2024/25 season has crossed it’s midpoint, Real Madrid finds itself in a strong position in La Liga, sitting atop the La Liga table. However, their European campaign is at a crossroads, with a high-stakes playoff clash against Manchester City in the Champions League determining whether they advance or face an early exit.
While the current season remains intense, anticipation for the next one is already building. Leaked images of Real Madrid’s 2025/26 away and third kits have surfaced, and fans have their verdict ready.
Real Madrid’s Leaked 25/26 Navy Blue Away Kit
The away kit for the 25/26 season is a tribute to the newly renovated Santiago Bernabeu. It features a dark navy/black base with silver logos and light-volt accents, mirroring the stadium’s sleek, modern look at night. A white line pattern runs around, almost in the shape of a bottle. Altogether, the leaked design symbolizes the architectural contours of the Bernabeu’s exterior.
Template-wise, the Adidas Tiro 25 design is utilized, featuring a Teamgeist-style collar.
This marks the first time since the 2018/19 season that Real Madrid has donned a predominantly black/dark navy away kit. That version was a simple, rather minimalistic design, a black base with the three stripes on the shoulders in a metallic grey.
Real Madrid Leaked 25/26 Blue Third Kit
Madrid’s leaked 2025/26 third kit sticks with blue but goes the other way on the colour spectrum, opting for a vibrant blue base with white detailing.
Unlike the away kit, which draws inspiration from the stadium’s exterior, this jersey is modeled after the seating arrangement inside the Bernabéu. The fabric features a pattern that can be compared to that of the stadium seats, adding a unique texture to the design. The kit keeps with Adidas’ trend and sports the Trefoil logo instead of the classic three stripes.
One of the standout elements of this kit is the inclusion of forward Juanito’s famous quote: “90 Minuti en el Bernabéu son molto longo” which translates to 90 minutes at the Bernabéu is a very long time.
First spoken during the 1984/85 UEFA Cup semi-final, this phrase has since become iconic for Madridstas. The inside of the jersey will feature this inscription, reinforcing the club’s historic fighting spirit.
For fans of nostalgic designs, this kit closely resembles Madrid’s 2013/14 away kit—a season remembered for the club’s La Decima triumph.
Fan Reactions
The leaked designs have sparked a wave of excitement among Real Madrid fans, with early reactions ranging from appreciation to nostalgic throwbacks.
One fan on X kept it simple, declaring “adidas cooked,” while another praised the look by saying, “What a nice jersey.” The away kit, in particular, has drawn strong approval, with a user commenting, “the away looks great.”
For some, the away kit leaks brought back fond memories, as one nostalgic fan shared a picture of Gareth Bale donning Madrid’s last black away kit, reminiscing about the good ol’ days.
Another supporter was so impressed by the third kit design that they joked, “This literally looks so good would wear it in a wedding.” Meanwhile, one user dropped his bold rating: “1000000/10.”
Summing it up, a fan commented his view on all the leaks: “they remaking the best ones,” while sharing images of the club’s iconic La Decima season kits.
