Barcelona vs Real Madrid is one of the biggest games in the world soccer calendar and this weekend's match will have an additional point of interest for music fans, with Drake's OVO logo set to appear on the Barca jerseys. The rapper's owl icon will replace the usual sponsor, Spotify, as part of a move by the streaming company to celebrate Drake becoming their first artist to pass 50bn streams.
The shirt will be worn during "El Clasico" on Sunday, October 16. The team will wear the OVO-branded shirts during the match as well as shirts 'Drake 50' on the back during their pre-game warm-up. "This doesn't feel real but it is," Drake said on Instagram.
Earlier this year Drake released new album Honestly, Nevermind. The club-orientated project features the singles "Sticky" and "Jimmy Cooks." He also appeared on DJ Khaled's "Staying Alive," a Hot 100 hit that helped him break a chart record previously held by The Beatles.
