Boca Juniors 2020/21 Maradona Tribute Home Shirt

Home shirt worn by Boca Juniors during the 2020–2021 season as a special Maradona tribute edition.

The shirt features a deep navy base with Boca Juniors’ iconic yellow horizontal stripe running across the middle of the shirt, preserving the club’s instantly recognisable identity. A yellow stripe circles each sleeve, while yellow detailing on the top of both shoulders adds extra contrast and structure to the design. The overall look is bold and respectful, combining Boca’s timeless blue-and-gold colours with a clean modern layout worthy of the tribute it represents.

The 2020–21 season was an emotional period for Boca Juniors, deeply marked by the passing of club icon Diego Maradona in November 2020. Maradona remains one of the most revered figures in Boca history, having led the club to the 1981 Metropolitano title before becoming a global football legend. In honour of his legacy, Boca wore tribute imagery and special commemorative elements during this era, with supporters across Argentina and the football world paying homage to one of the game’s greatest ever players.

On the pitch, Boca remained competitive across domestic and continental competitions. The club won the 2020 Copa Diego Armando Maradona, a tournament named in his honour, and continued to challenge in the Copa Libertadores. The squad featured experienced leaders such as Carlos Tevez, Edwin Cardona, Carlos Izquierdoz, and Esteban Andrada, while younger players continued to emerge through the squad during a changing period for the club.

This shirt is remembered as more than just a kit, it became a symbol of remembrance for Boca Juniors’ most iconic son. Combining classic club colours with tribute significance, it stands as one of the most meaningful Boca shirts of the modern era.
