The Principality’s soccer club AS Monaco and Kappa have a new third jersey for the 2021-2022 season.

It clearly brought them luck as they won with a resounding 2-0 score, a brilliant result.
After the traditional red and white for the matches at Louis-II and the charcoal gray for those outside, (unveiled on July 1 in a video with the players of the first team, the Academy and rapper Krisy, ) AS Monaco presents its new third jersey – a cream colour with the diagonals at 55 degrees.
If white used to be in the spotlight, now in place of it is a cream colour, reminiscent of the Rock, with slightly darker lines in the new diagonal at 55 degrees. The shorts and socks are also cream, with some touches of red. The logo of eToro is also featured in red on the chest, as is the club crest and the Omini.
