The Argentine Liga Profesional found itself in an awkward situation after using a fan-made concept kit design in a promotional graphic for the league.
Liga Argentina Promo Images Features Racing Concept
Designer Ignacio Llompart created a Nike fantasy concept for Racing Club inspired by their 1967 Intercontinental Cup kit, featuring a retro light blue and white striped design with a distinctive collar and the Betsson sponsor.
Very Uncommon: Nike Deal Active But Racing Still Wears Kappa
The league's website afaplay.tv used the concept for a collage alongside the actual kits from other Argentine clubs in promotional material. The graphic has since been fixed and and now shows Racing's actual Kappa kit.
Racing has already entered their Nike deal, but still wears Kappa as their Nike shirts will only be ready in early April 2026.
