Atletico fans want old logo on the jerseys against Manchester City To take the field with the fourth kit, the one made by Nike with the historic crest of the Madrid club, instead of the home kit
Tomorrow Atletico Madrid will be back on the pitch for the return leg of the Champions League quarter-final against Pep Guardiola's Manchester City, who won the first leg 1-0 thanks to De Bruyne's goal. Now, however, the challenge moves to the Wanda Metropolitano, one of the fiercest stadiums in Europe thanks to the performance of pure intensity of Diego Simeone's team (and Simeone himself) and the enthusiasm of the many fans of Atleti.
While waiting for the next decisions, which will concern the future of the club's heritage, now the fans are clamoring for the team to take the field not with the first kit, with the classic red and white horizontal stripes, but with the fourth, entirely red but on which Nike has decided to pin the old logo. A bit like what New Balance did with the fourth kit of AS Roma, which saw the return of the ASR logo, and with which the Giallorossi won the last Derby. Perhaps the fans of Atletico Madrid hope to have the same luck against a team that at the moment seems unstoppable as Manchester City, clinging to the symbol that according to many contains the soul of the club.
