Barcelona have struck a deal with American fashion designer Thom Browne to supply their “off-field tailored fits and formal wear” – aeroplane clobber – for the next three seasons.
According to GQ magazine, Browne is famed as “the architect of the shrunken suit jacket and above-the-ankle trouser”, which is all well and good until you end up making Lionel Messi look like a particularly dishevelled end-of-the-pier Norman Wisdom tribute act…
Not that Pies can claim to have any great sartorial flair, but doesn’t Leo just look a little silly here? Like a 10-year-old at his uncle’s wedding.
