Olivia Rodrigo is set to take over Barcelona's iconic football shirt, but fans have been left outraged by the price tag of nearly £340. The 'Good 4 U' singer's logo will feature on the jersey during one of the biggest matches in world football, El Clasico, later this month as Barcelona face fierce rivals Real Madrid.
The special edition shirt costs €399 (around £340), while a signed version will set fans back almost €3,000 (over £2,500). The prices have sparked fury among supporters, with one commenting: '€400 for a kit? Why? Will she sing for me when I buy it? Who sets those prices, that's insane!' Another Barcelona fan wrote: 'We are being ripped off, you must be mad to pay this price, that's two weeks' wages.'
Spotify Collaboration and Star Players
The link-up is part of a collaboration with Spotify. England star Marcus Rashford will also sport her logo during the huge game. Olivia follows in the footsteps of Drake, the Rolling Stones, and Coldplay to feature on the iconic kit.
Speaking about her connection to football, Rodrigo said: 'I'm an American girl, but I went to my first European football game a few years ago, and it was just the most electric, wonderful environment. The fans were so incredible, and I loved all the chants they did. It was actually really inspiring musically.'

Olivia Rodrigo will head to London next April for four nights as part of her Unravelled Tour. The world tour kicks off in America before she heads to Europe, with Paris, Amsterdam, and Munich all on the schedule for a mega 65-day run.
