Bogota International made its first official act this Saturday, before starting to compete in the League and the BetPlay 2026 Cup. The new club inherits the quota left by The Equity, name that disappears after 23 years in Colombian professional soccer.
The first thing that was known was his starting shirt. It will be white, with a black stripe on the chest and another thinner one in a gold tone, like its neck. It was developed by the Umbro firm, which returns to Colombian football after not having any club in 2025.
