Football transfer news

Borussia Dortmund have unveiled – and swiftly debuted – their bold new away kit for the 2025/26 season.

The shirt arrives in a striking mix of white, black, and high-voltage neon yellow. A clean white base is lit up with bold black sleeves and vibrant yellow accents, designed as a true reflection of the electric energy that encapsulates the Westfalenstadion.

Behind the bold design sits cutting-edge performance. The Authentic version uses PUMA’s featherlight ULTRAWEAVE material, built to minimise weight and resistance, while the Replica edition mirrors the same striking aesthetic in a fan-friendly fit. Both come with dryCELL moisture-control tech to keep wearers cool under pressure.

Marco Mueller, PUMA’s Senior Director of Product Line Management Performance Apparel, explained: “Designing the Away kit is always an opportunity to express BVB’s energy in a different way. The white, black, and high-voltage yellow combination is unapologetically bold and impossible to miss – a perfect reflection of the Club’s fearless character on the road.”

Dortmund unveiled the kit just a day before wearing it for the first time in the Bundesliga at the Voith-Arena, where they beat Heidenheim 2-0 thanks to goals from Serhou Guirassy – his fifth of the campaign already – and Maximilian Beier.

The new Borussia Dortmund 2025/26 away kit is available now via the club and PUMA’s official online stores, as well as select global retailers.

Wayne Rooney has shared an emotional tribute to his friend and boxing legend Ricky Hatton following the tragic news of his death at just 46 years old.

Hatton, a former world champion boxer, was found dead at his Manchester home on September 14.

While the cause of death has not been revealed, police have confirmed that it is not being treated as suspicious.

Rooney, 39, had a close friendship with Hatton, having famously carried his belts into the ring ahead of Hatton’s victory over Jose Luis Castillo in Las Vegas in 2007. Speaking on The Wayne Rooney Show, he reflected on the devastating loss.

“Ricky was such a good lad and a good person,” said Rooney. “He captured the nation’s heart. The support he had was incredible, and people followed him everywhere.”

Rooney also expressed his condolences to Hatton’s family and friends, saying: “I want to pay my condolences to his family and everyone who was really close to him. It’s way too soon.”

The former Manchester United and England striker shared that he received the news of Hatton’s death shortly after playing in a legends exhibition match for Manchester United in South Korea.

“It hasn’t fully kicked in yet,” Rooney added. “It’s devastating. Heartbreaking.”

“Just devastating.”

Rooney wasn’t the only footballer to pay tribute to Hatton, who during his glittering career in the ring held world titles in two weight classes – light-welterweight and welterweight.

Jack Grealish, sharing his condolences on Instagram, described the boxing legend as a “true legend” and “absolute diamond” every time they met.

“Such sad news man,” Grealish wrote. “My thoughts go out to his family and friends. RIP Hitman.”

Roy Keane, Micah Richards, and countless others from the football world also expressed their sorrow, as did Tyson Fury from the boxing community. The heavyweight champion shared his grief on Instagram, saying, “Rip to the legend @rickyhatton may he rip. There will only ever be 1 Ricky Hatton. Can’t believe this, so young.”

Arsenal’s Riccardo Calafiori has revealed an unexpected footballing idol – and it’s not who many would have guessed.

In a recent exclusive interview with VERSUS, the Italy international spoke candidly about everything from his role as an ambassador for adidas’ underwear line, to who he thinks has the best hair at Arsenal (Noni Madueke, for the record).

But it was his footballing idol that really caught attention.

While most would assume he looked up to legendary Italian defenders like Paolo Maldini or Alessandro Nesta, Calafiori revealed his inspiration came from a more surprising source: Aleksandar Kolarov, the former Manchester City and AS Roma full-back.

“When I was younger at Roma, I was lucky to train with the first team,” Calafiori explained. “I got to learn directly from Aleksandar Kolarov, who played my position. He was someone I could watch every day – his technique, his mentality – and he gave me advice and small details I still keep with me today.”

Although Kolarov was his main influence, Calafiori did mention the classic icons of Italian defending. “Of course, defenders like Maldini, Nesta, Chiellini… those players are icons for me,” he added.

Elsewhere in the interview, the 23-year-old spoke about life at Arsenal since his £42m summer move from Bologna last summer.

“It’s special,” he said. “Everyone’s a good guy, we’re friends, and I feel really comfortable here. Last season wasn’t easy, but I came back this summer with a fire inside me. I couldn’t wait to start again. Playing in the Premier League is the dream for so many players, so now I just want to enjoy it and show what I can do consistently.”

Kolarov was a pillar of consistency at Manchester City, helping the club win two Premier League titles. Now, Calafiori will undoubtedly be hoping to replicate his idol’s success at Arsenal.

Few players have ever seen the game quite like Lionel Messi – scanning spaces before they even exist, turning the impossible into the inevitable.

To celebrate that unrivalled awareness, adidas have unveiled the latest entry in his signature line: the F50 ‘Vis10n’.

The boots arrive in a bold Royal Blue base, animated with flowing Blue Burst graphics and finished with three striking Solar Yellow stripes across the toe.

Flip them over and a yellow soleplate fades into white through a sleek gradient – a design nod to speed, agility, and the lightness that defined Messi’s game.

On the tech side, they’re built for comfort and acceleration. The flexible HybridTouch upper offers a leather-like feel, paired with a knit “burrito” tongue for an easier fit. Beneath, the Sprintframe 360 outsole is tuned for sharp movement and quick feet on dry grass.

Messi himself has already debuted the boots.

First spotted wearing them in Argentina training, he wasted no time putting them to use – scoring twice in a 3-0 World Cup qualifier win against Venezuela, christening the ‘Vis10n’ in trademark fashion.

Inter and Nike have dropped their new third kit for the 2025/26 season – a Total 90-inspired design that revives one of Nike’s most iconic templates from the 2000s.

The shirt keeps the trademark T90 aesthetic, complete with the centralised crest and framed chest panel, but this time it arrives in a colourway never before seen at San Siro: a bold Thunder Grey base cut through with striking Safety Orange trims.

Inter have long used orange in their third shirts, but rarely as a secondary tone. Here, it works in dramatic fashion, with the bright accents sparking brightly against the darker tones as they run along the neckline, sleeves and crest border.

The retro-style cuffs, finished with the classic T90 pattern, only add to the nostalgia, while Nike’s latest Dri-FIT ADV technology brings modern comfort, breathability and freedom of movement.

The kit will debut on September 21 when Inter face Sassuolo in Serie A, and is available now via Nike, the club’s official online store, and select retailers worldwide.

With Chelsea, Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain also receiving their own T90 remixes this season, Inter’s version stands tall as a retro throwback that captures the joy and free-flowing expression of 2000s football – exactly the kind of energy the Nerazzurri will hope to channel on the pitch.
