Drawing inspiration from the strength of Los Leones, the new jersey in magnet grey, features a striking graphic lion print in bold red and black tones.
The bold design is a tribute to the fierce spirit of Athletic Club and the powerful roar of support from the Basque region.
A round neck collar with silver trim is also incorporated, whilst black sleeves are added alongside matching red knitted shorts and socks.
“I really like the new design because it shows what it means to be part of the Athletic Club family. It’s hard to put into words what it means to play for this team, but I’ll wear this new shirt with pride next season, as will the rest of the team.”
Iñigo Martínez
