Juventus to release basketball jersey, despite not having a basketball team

The jersey has been leaked

This is the time of year when images of next season’s football jerseys start to emerge.

But this might be the only basketball jersey from a football club to leak over the coming months. And definitely the only basketball jersey to be released from a football club that doesn’t actually have a basketball team.

Barcelona, Real Madrid and Fenerbahce are among the European sides to have a basketball team and a football team as part of their clubs…

Juventus doesn’t have a basketball team, but they are still releasing a basketball jersey. Seemingly because they can, and people will buy it anyway.

Footy Headlines have got their hands on images of the new jersey, which has been made by Adidas and will be released in the summer.

Here it is:

It is modelled on Juventus’ current jersey, and would look the part if Juventus actually had a basketball team.
