• Travis Scott to be featured on Barcelona’s El-Clasico jersey for May 2025

In a groundbreaking music-meets-sports collaboration, American rap icon Travis Scott is reportedly set to be featured on Barcelona’s jersey for their upcoming El-Clásico clash against Real Madrid on May 11, 2025.

According to Catalan outlet ARA, the deal has been finalized between Barcelona and Spotify, the club’s main sponsor. The move comes after initial talks with pop megastar Taylor Swift—the most-streamed artist of the past decade—were said to have fallen through.

Travis Scott will become the sixth artist to appear on Barça’s kit under the Barcelona x Spotify partnership, which began in 2022 after the club ended its sponsorship with Rakuten. Previous El-Clásico shirt features include Drake, Rosalía, The Rolling Stones, Karol G, and Coldplay.

This collaboration continues to merge the global appeal of music and football, and Travis Scott’s appearance is expected to bring a surge of hype and visibility to one of football’s most-watched fixtures.
