Real Madrid unveiled their new skins and the biggest surprise was not on the design but on who shined the brightest under the spotlight. Iker Casillas may have given everybody a hint that he is staying with Los Merengues at least one more season as he appeared front and center in the new publicity campaign.
WATCH: The video used to promote the new skin
Many have signaled Casillas as one of the men leaving the club this summer. As the rumors of David de Gea joining the Spanish side grow stronger, the possibility of Casillas leaving the club he has played for his whole life are also strong. This publicity stunt by Real Madrid could be a sign that things are not headed in the direction most people think.
Casillas tweeted a picture of him with the new jersey

Regarding the design of the home jersey, the shirt keeps the white and grey stripes with just a few and slight modifications. The second kit is grey with green stripes while the third uniform features a dark blue design, similar to one that has been used in the past.
This is how the second kit looks like
Other players that appear in the publicity images are Cristiano Ronaldo, Marcelo, Sergio Ramos and Karim Benzema. CR7 has also been linked with Paris Saint-Germain in the past few weeks.
