Juventus are reportedly considering a radical shirt re-design which may see their trademark black and white stripes disappear.
Stories in the peninsula on Thursday suggest that sportswear giants Nike, who have a 12-year contract in place with the Turin giants, want the outfit to rejuvenate their skin.
Although Juventus have been playing in black and white striped shirts since they were brought over from Nottingham in the early 1900s, Nike have offered to give the Old Lady a facelift.
The American firm will obviously look to keep the black and white theme going, but they would like to get rid of the stripes.
It’s understood that they have come up with a two-band colour jersey, one half in black and the other in white.
They are said to have contacted Barcelona and Atletico Madrid with the same proposal, with the capital outfit accepting the switch.
However, it’s unclear at this time whether Juventus will agree to the controversial move which will undoubtedly annoy traditionalists.
