If you looked closely at the jerseys in the match between Inter and Real Madrid in the Champions League this week, you might have noticed that Inter's kit was a bit different from the one in the Serie A. Thanks to @mirash_geaze for the heads-up.
Without Small Socios.com Text - Inter Milan Wears Different $INTER Fan Token Logo
The $INTER Fan Token logo in the UEFA Champions League was the same ass in the Serie Abut with one important difference - it did not feature the small "by socios.com" text on the bottom left.
The reason for Inter to alter the logo is pretty simple - UEFA does not allow as big sponsor logos as the Serie A. The club, therefore, decided to ditch the "socios.com" lettering.
Serie A allows 250cm², UEFA 200cm²
In UEFA competitions, the total area used for sponsor advertising on the front of the shirt must not exceed 200cm². In the Serie A, the total area used for sponsor advertising must not exceed 250cm² for a single sponsor.
In fact, Serie A even allows two front-of-shirt sponsors. They are allowed to cover an area of 350cm² combined.
For example, Napoli is not allowed to have their two front-of-shirt sponsors in UEFA competitions.
A team whose sponsor logo is remarkably smaller in UEFA competitions is Lille.
