Atletico Madrid to Sign Disney Plus Kit Sponsor Deal? Different Logos to Feature on Kit During Season?
Jun 17, 2023, by Chris
Spanish football club Atletico Madrid are currently in search of a main sponsor for the upcoming 2023-2024 season after their previous deal with Whalefin was ended ahead of schedule. According to Atletico news channel Rumore Atm, Disney Plus have emerged as one of the potential candidates for this coveted partnership.
Atletico Madrid Explore Disney Plus as Potential Main Sponsor for 23-24 Season
Rumore Atm have suggested that Disney Plus could not only become the club's main sponsor but also utilize the opportunity to promote their upcoming movies and series. If the deal goes through, Atletico Madrid's kit could feature different logos showcasing Disney's exciting content.
This potential collaboration between Atletico Madrid and Disney Plus would bring back memories of the club's unique sponsorship agreement with Columbia Pictures back in the 2003-2004 season. At that time, Atletico Madrid changed their main sponsor on their shirts whenever a new movie was released by Columbia Pictures.
Aside from Disney Plus, other companies under consideration for Atletico Madrid's main sponsorship include Hyundai, Caixa Bank, Capital Energy, and Civitas.
As of now, Atlético Madrid have no main sponsor for the 23-24 season. Their 2023-2024 Nike kits could be sold without a sponsor - the club's 23-24 away kit is already available to buy sponsorfree, and the home could follow.

Adidas Argentina Messi Farewell Kit Teased
Adidas and the Argentine Football Association have teased a special-edition commemorative jersey celebrating Lionel Messi for his final appearance with the national team. Following the announcement of his retirement from international duty after a legendary career spanning 207 caps and 125 goals, Messi is set to wear the bespoke design in his farewell match against Benin at the Estadio Monumental on October 6, 2026.
The unique kit departs from the traditional striping format, opting for a sky-blue base accented by a single broad white central stripe. Tonal rays inspired by the Sun of May radiate across the front and back of the torso. In a rare personal touch, Messi's signature 'M' logo replaces the traditional Adidas performance logo on the right chest in metallic gold, balanced by the gold-accented three-star Argentina crest on the left. The crew-neck collar and sleeve cuffs are finished in black with sleek gold edging.
On the reverse, the shirt features gold 'MESSI 10' printing framed by the radiant sunburst motif, topped by a small Sun of May emblem just below the rear collar. Messi previewed the shirt on social media with the message "One last match... A jersey for a lifetime," offering a fitting tribute as he prepares to close his historic international chapter.
