Manchester City’s third kit has been leaked, and it’s quite unusual

We’re still getting kit leaks, and this time it’s Manchester City

Throughout the summer we marvelled at the constant stream of leaks coming from kit manufacturers around the world, and on Saturday we were graced with yet another leak, this time in the form of Manchester City’s new third kit.

City’s away jersey for the 2018/19 season has already caused something of a stir with its unusual design, which appears to have taken inspiration from City’s 1998/99 effort, during the season which saw them defeat Gillingham in the Division 2 play-off final.

The third kit, which has been leaked on football shirt website Footy Headlines, is a purple number which has an orange sash across the front.

The kit also features a monochromatic club crest, as well as a very subtle graphic print of the Etihad Stadium and the surrounding area, similar to Tottenham Hotspur‘s away kit.
