Liverpool’s new away jersey appears to be a tribute to a 90s classic

Cup Final chic

This jersey will look familiar to Liverpool fans of a certain age.

Liverpool launched their new home kit earlier this week, and will confirm the details of their away strip in either May or June.

However, Footy Headlines have got their hands on some concept images of the away jersey, and it looks to be a tribute to their green and white kit from the mid-1990s.

Liverpool wore the green and white kit in the 1996 FA Cup final, when they lost 1-0 to Manchester United.

The match is also remembered for Liverpool’s infamous white Armani suits, the sight of which reportedly convinced Alex Ferguson that his side would win.

The jersey for next season looks like a fitting tribute to the retro jersey, just don’t expect Jurgen Klopp’s side to wear white suits if they reach a final next season.
