When adidas paid for the keys to Manchester United’s jersey kingdom, we were expecting more than this.
The German sports giants have done some solid work with recent jersey, leisure and retro releases but they have hardly pushed the boat out with the 2016/17 away kit.
adidas teased out an impending launch, this morning, with this blue-tinted tweet:
The new @ManUtd away shirt 16/17. Available 11th May 2016. Pre-order now: https://t.co/zIXmyYL9sm pic.twitter.com/1NW2GAPdet

Thanks to Footy Headlines, however, here is a full gawk at next season’s away day offering.
It is unremarkably similar to Real Madrid’s grey away kit this season.
Real Madrid's new away kit has definitely split opinion http://t.co/Zz0P0GOWcL pic.twitter.com/dKh4k522VF

This is how the jersey looks with some nifty shorts and flecked socks.
Look at those socks though…
