According to ESPN, the new Barcelona home kit for the 2023/24 season will stand as a tribute to their absurdly successful, record-breaking women's team.

The shirt itself, designed with the concept "Here to lead the way," sees the return of extra-wide Blaugrana stripes that are instantly reminiscent of Barcelona kits from the mid-2000s.

Barcelona Femini has become one of the most decorated teams in modern women's football, winning eight Liga F titles and two UEFA Women's Champions League titles, among other major honours.

Barcelona sign Senegal youngster Faye

Meanwhile, Barca Universal reports that Barcelona officially confirmed the signing of 18-year-old defender Mikayil Faye from NK Kustosija in Croatia.

The Senegalese youngster is set to join the Barça Atletic team for the time being. However, it has been reported that manager Xavi Hernandez wishes to keep a close eye on the teenager during the pre-season camp coming up next month.

Faye has signed a four-year contract with the reigning La Liga champions until the summer of 2027. The deal also consists of a mammoth €400 million release clause.

Barcelona win La Liga title

Earlier, Sports Brief reported Barcelona won La Liga for the first time since 2019 by thrashing Espanyol 4-2 on Sunday, wrestling the title back from rivals Real Madrid.

The Catalan giants clinched their 27th Spanish championship at the home of their neighbours, with scenes turning ugly at full time as celebrating Barcelona players were chased from the field by pitch invaders.

Robert Lewandowski struck twice for Barcelona, along with goals for Alejandro Balde and Jules Kounde.
