Las Palmas' touching gesture in memory of Jesús de Miguel

Las Palmas will wear their third kit—which resembles Tenerife's colours—in Sunday's match against Eldense as a tribute to Jesús de Miguel.

UD Las Palmas announced Wednesday they will wear their third kit in their upcoming match against CD Eldense on Sunday at 17:30 at Estadio Gran Canaria as a tribute to Jesús de Miguel. The kit had sparked some controversy among fans when it was unveiled due to its similarity to CD Tenerife's colours, but the club decided to use it for this occasion as a gesture of respect and solidarity towards Tenerife and de Miguel's family, friends and teammates. In a statement, Las Palmas said the white and blue kit represents the club's values and that the initiative is a show of unity across Canarian football that transcends sporting rivalry. The gesture has been warmly received by fans of both clubs.
