“We’re honored to give up our space on the FC Barcelona shirt to celebrate Rosalía — the most streamed Spanish artist on Spotify in 2022,” Marc Hazan, VP of Partnerships at Spotify, said.
“ It’s a chance to continue the celebration of our unique partnership with FC Barcelona and continue to bring the worlds of football and music together.”
The special custom logo kits follows Drake’s iconic OVO owl logo featuring across their shirts for the previous Clásico matchup in October as part of their major sponsorship deal with Spotify.

In addition to being the most-streamed female artist among Spotify users in Barcelona, Rosalía is the platform’s No. 1 most-streamed Spanish artist among all users worldwide.
Barcelona lost the reverse fixture earlier in the season, but will be hoping to put things right once more against the European champions, having already defeated Los Blancos to lift the SuperCopa Espana trophy.
Barcelona-Negreira Saga

It is alleged that between 2016 and 2018, the club paid Jose Maria Enriquez Negreira to tell their players how to behave with each individual referee to give them the best chance of favourable treatment.
The case which is currently under investigation is the latest in the lineup of issues that have rocked the Blaugrana in the last three seasons.
