In 2009, Lakers legend Kobe Bryant wore an FC Barcelona uniform on a magazine cover. This season, Barca will wear a road uniform inspired by Bryant and his Mamba Mentality.

FC Barcelona unveiled its new away kit, which is inspired by late Los Angeles Lakers legend Kobe Bryant. The yellow top features Bryant's signature logo and a snakeskin-style pattern to evoke his "Mamba Mentality." The kit is accented with violet and black, mirroring the Lakers' color palette.

Eduardo Tansley and Pol Ballús of The Athletic reported that the soccer club would be collaborating with the Kobe brand for the next couple of seasons.
