Real Madrid's new home kit finally got leaked recently. The white and gold color scheme quickly drew comparisons to the very popular 2011-12 kit, which was worn for one of the Spanish giants' more successful seasons domestically.
Now @pjimenez71, who already shared the first picture of the upcoming shirt, has shared a new photo that puts up the 'original' against the 'copy'.
What's immediately visible is that, although the overall color scheme is similar enough, there are a number of key differences between he 2011-12 and the 2019-20 Real Madrid home shirts.
For one, the shade of gold used on the next Real Madrid home jersey is a tad on the lighter side. The sleeves look very similar, while the two other main differences are the collar, which was much more sophisticated 7 years ago, as well as the fact that the sponsor logo is also golden in 2019-2020 whereas it was black on the old shirt.
This, coupled with the fact that 7 years is a long time, leads us to think that this it's definitely not all that unusual for Adidas to once again release a white and gold Real Madrid home shirt.
