It seems like registration issues aren't the only problems Barcelona is facing with La Liga. 

According to Sport, Barcelona are once again being told they can't debut any of their new kits as they clash with their next opponent in Levante.

Once again, Barcelona will have to dawn the infamous green alternate jersey from last season which gives Barcelona fans bad memories of their Champions League defeat. 

The Problem

The problem Barcelona seem to face is a more strict policy from La Liga on jersey and short clashes. 

The home kit of Barcelona clashes with Levante as they both have red and blue stripes which is fair enough. The red also clashed with Mallorca's red home jersey.

For the away kit it appears that it's a matter of shorts clashing with Barcelona's being black and Levante's being a dark blue. The black shorts also clashed with Mallorca's red shorts.

For the Mallorca game, Barca didn't wear their third kit for this season as it's yet to be released by Nike. Barcelona are set to release the third kit this week but La Liga still believe that there is a clash of kits.

It is rumored that the orange third kit will have navy blue shorts that La Liga believe will clash with Levante's home jersey.

Back To Last Year

With La Liga's stance, Barcelona will once again just use last year's third kit which means Culers will have to wait another week to see any of their team's new jerseys.

They will hope that this is the last of their jersey issues this season.
