With a big birthday coming up, Juventus have revealed that they plan to mark turning The Big 1-2-0 by wearing a beautiful anniversary-themed shirt.
Adidas have knocked out a ‘fourth strip’ for the Bianconeri, that they will wear in their next Serie A match, at home against Benevento this coming Sunday.
The shirt will be released on 1st November, the exact day in 1897 on which the famous old club was originally founded.

The pared down, classically-styled jersey puts Juve’s iconic stripes front and centre, with the Adidas logo and the Jeep sponsors’ marque both subtly included, black-on-black, in the left-hand stripe. The club crest is also replaced by a simple patch with three gold stars.
You’ll also have to be quick if you want to get your paws on one, as the 120th anniversary replicas are being released in a limited edition run of just 1,897 shirts.
Noice.
