Alongside their white, black, and orange kits, Valencia had a striking grey alternate shirt with thin black vertical stripes, made by Nike and still carrying the Terra Mítica sponsor. It offered a more modern, European look, standing out from the cleaner home and away options. Worn occasionally in both La Liga and the Champions League, it was seen on players like Adrián Ilie, Kily González, and Rubén Baraja, adding variety to the squad’s wardrobe during their historic campaign that ended in the 2000 Champions League final.
