Barcelona has announced that it will be sporting Drake’s OVO owl logo on its shirt for El Clásico against Real Madrid on Sunday.
The move is in conjunction with Barça’s normal shirt sponsor Spotify, which is honoring the rapper for becoming the first artist on the platform with more than 50 billion streams.
“On October 16, instead of seeing the world’s most popular audio streaming subscription service logo on the front of the Barça jersey, those watching the game against Real Madrid will see the silhouette of an owl – the logo of the Canadian singer’s brand,” Barcelona said in a statement.
Drake also announced the move in a post on social media, saying: “This doesn’t feel real but it is.”

As for the game itself, Barcelona and Real Madrid will enter the match at Santiago Bernabéu level on points atop La Liga with 22 apiece.
Winning La Liga is likely to be the biggest achievement Barcelona would be able to reach this season. The club looks set for a costly exit from the Champions League after a wild 3-3 draw with Inter this week.
