Harry Kane and Bayern Munich were prohibited from carrying their kit at home in the Champions League campaign and the reasons behind this have now been revealed.
Bavarian giants are getting closer to another Bundesliga title – after missing last year – and progress well in their European campaign.
Although they have missed automatic qualification, the German team remains in the competition and will face Celtic in a series of 32 clashes on Wednesday evening.
Despite their obvious confrontation of kit between their respective domestic kits – Celtic playing in green and white, Bayern in red and black – visitors will be in their band outside.
Indeed, UEFA imposed a ban on Vincent Kompany’s team to play in competition in their original band because of the dark figures on the jersey, which, according to them, do not offer enough contrast to viewers.
The director organ has since declared that Bayern would be authorized to participate in the kit, as long as they will make slight modifications.

More specifically, the modification of numbers and names in white police would allow Bayern to carry the kit as the tournament progresses.
Bayern’s decision to make the colors of the kit red and black were faced with the frustration of fans last year, which sent a strong message to the club’s hierarchy.
During the last match of the 2023-24 campaign, where Bayern played in their kit for the 2024-25 season, the fans held a banner who said: “The colors of the club are red and white”.
Meanwhile, Bayern will have bread on night in the unbeaten night in 16 home games this campaign, including four in the Champions League.
Before the draw, Brendan Rodgers fears that his pleads for Celtic fans of “ to follow the rules ” will fall into the ears of a deaf – even after having escaped the ban on UEFA to attend to The Champions League leg against Bayern later this month.
UEFA inflicted a fine of £ 8,340 for the lighting of fireworks and the launch of objects by a supporter at Villa Park, but control, ethics and the disciplinary body have decided not to put in work a suspended ban on fans outside.
The punishment is still suspended on Celtic after a series of fines led to the ban – which was suspended for two years – following large Pyro screens by Dortmund fans last September.
However, the club managed to argue that it should not be launched for the second stage of the match against Bayern on February 18, after a fan launched a green smoke box on the field during defeat 4 -2 by Aston Villa on January 29.
