Barcelona players will wear shirts bearing a logo belonging to a famous Spanish artist during their match against rivals Real Madrid on March 19 at Camp Nou, in the 26th round of the Spanish Football League.
The Spanish newspaper "AS" reported that the "Spotify" platform for broadcasting music and podcasts - whose brand usually appears on Barcelona shirts and owns the rights to the name in the "Camp Nou" stadium - decided to change the sign during the next "El Clasico" match.
The newspaper added that Spotify's contract with Barcelona gives it the right to change its trademark in some matches, which actually happened in one of El Clasico matches last year, when the "owl" logo of Canadian rapper Drake appeared on the shirt.

According to the newspaper, this time the platform chose the Spanish artist Rosalia, so that her logo appears on the front of the shirt.
Rosalía is considered one of the most famous singers in Spain, and she hails from Barcelona specifically, where she was born on September 25, 1992. She is a singer and songwriter known for her modern innovations in flamenco music.
Barcelona tops the La Liga standings table with 62 points after 24 rounds, 9 points ahead of defending champions Real Madrid, who seeks to win and narrow the gap with the Blaugrana.
Before that, Barcelona will visit Athletic Bilbao at the "San Mames" stadium, while Real Madrid will host Espanyol.
It is noteworthy that Barcelona and Real Madrid will meet again on the fifth of next April in the second leg of the King’s Cup semi-finals at the “Camp Nou” stadium as well, knowing that the first leg at the “Santiago Bernabeu” stadium ended with the victory of the Catalan team with a goal without a response.
