Footy Headlines have revealed fresh design specifics of Celtic’s proposed 2026/27 third strip, which is expected to be launched as a tribute to the Lisbon Lions.
The 60th anniversary of Celtic’s historic 1967 European Cup triumph stands as the finest accomplishment in the club’s proud and uninterrupted history.
Footy Headlines have unveiled a concept of the kit, which is reportedly ‘inspired by the mosaic outside Estadio Nacional’.
‘First info’ on Celtic kit leak as Hoops create fantastic Lisbon Lions tribute:
The Lisbon Lions have long been celebrated for their remarkable European Cup success in 1967, but Celtic are now aiming to honour that legendary occasion with a special tribute centred on the most significant chapter in the club’s history.
The strip appears superb and carries slight echoes of the debated 2023/24 ‘snake patterned’ home jersey, although this version arguably looks far more impressive.
Footy Headlines outlines the Adidas creation as ‘an off-white base combined with gold and dark green trim, with logos potentially in either gold or dark green’.
Alongside the proposed design featuring the mosaic pattern, further details indicate ‘the accent colour of the logos could either be gold or dark green’.
Celtic’s partnership with Adidas and Not Another Penny:
Celtic’s collaboration with Adidas was extended this season and, to date, supporters have been met with a steady stream of merchandise launches.
Nonetheless, this upcoming shirt could strongly resonate with a large section of the fanbase, given that the 1967 European Cup victory remains the most legendary and heartfelt milestone in the club’s story.
That said, the commercial performance of the kit may hinge on whether the supporters’ Not Another Penny movement persists.
The demonstration has reportedly cost Celtic in excess of £350,000 in forfeited matchday income and retail revenue, but the question remains whether the boycott will end ahead of the release of this eye-catching strip.
