Harry Kane and Bayern Munich have been banned to wear their home kit in the Champions League campaign and the reasons behind this have now been revealed.
After another Bundesliga title, the Bavarian Giants will close their European campaign after another Bundesliga title.
Although they have missed the automatic qualification, the German party will remain in the competition and will be confronted on Wednesday evening in a round of 32 collision.
Although they are not an obvious kitbots between their respective home kits – Celtic playing in green and white, Bayern in red and black – the visitors will be in their road strip.
This is because UEFA has imposed a ban on Vincent Kompany's side to play in the competition in their home lane because of the dark songs on the sweater, which they believe do not offer enough contrast to viewers.
Since then, the administrative body has said that Bayern can participate in the kit, as long as they make only a few minor changes.
In particular, changing the numbers and names in a white font would enable Bayern to wear the kit as the tournament progresses.
Bayern will have their work cut out on the night unbeaten in 16 games at home this campaign, including four in the Champions League.
Prior to the draw, Brendan Rodgers fears his supplications for Celtic fans to 'follow the rules' can fall on deaf ears after they have escaped a UEFA ban by the play-off play of the Champions League later this month at To live against Bayern.
UEFA fined Celtic £ 8,340 for the lighting of fireworks and the throwing of objects by a supporter in Villa Park, but the control, ethics and disciplinary body decided to implement a suspended prohibition on the way fans.
The punishment still depends on Celtic after a series of fines led to the prohibition – which was suspended for two years – in the aftermath of large Pyro displays by fans in Dortmund last September.
However, the club successfully argued their case that it should not be activated for the second stage of the play-off against Bayern on February 18, after a fan threw a green smoking bus on the field during the 4-2 defeat by Aston Villa on 29 January.
In the meantime, Harry Kane has broken his silence in his future of Bayern Munich after it was revealed that he has a release clause in his contract that could pave the way for his return to the Premier League.
Included in the £ 120 million from the English captain to the Bundesliga club of Tottenham was a buy-out determination in his contract that he can activate.
Indications in Germany claim that the clause could have been activated during the most recent winter transfer window for a fee of £ 67 million, with the price in January fell to £ 54 million.
The reasons behind Bayern Munich's home kit ban in the Champions League have been revealed.
