Changes in technical sponsors in Argentine football for 2026

We review the Professional League teams that will change their kit brands this season.

Nike returns to Argentine football through Racing Club, replacing the "Academia's" nearly ten-year partnership with Kappa. The last club dressed by the American brand in the country was San Lorenzo until 2024.

A move that has gained significant traction is the return of Puma to Platense after 25 years. To compete in the CONMEBOL Libertadores, the "Calamar" will wear the same brand as they did during the 1994-2000 period.

The recently promoted Estudiantes de Río Cuarto also changes its technical sponsor for this season. The "León" replaces Mitre with IFK, a brand linked to several lower-division clubs that will have its first experience in the First Division.

2026 begins with only four confirmed brand changes in the Professional League, compared to the 7 that took place for the 2025 tournaments.
