Man United’s 2019/20 away kit has been leaked and it’s not for everyone

Sure to divide opinion

Now look, we get it. By now, you’re probably sick and tired of seeing pictures of leaked football shirts splashed across social media a few weeks ahead of their official launch. By this stage in the year, it’s perfectly understandable that you’re a bit bored of it all.

We won’t apologise, however, for bringing you this – Manchester United’s rumoured new away shirt.

Why? Well, because look at it…

Just look at it…

Having just officially released their new home kit, which draws inspiration from the Treble success 20 years ago, United’s next away shirt is, according to Footy Headlines, predominantly ‘linen’, which is a brownish-green colour. It also comes complete with some unusual snakeskin print.

The club’s badge, adidas logo and crew-neck collar are all black, as is the lettering beneath the Chevrolet logo.

At this stage, it’s not clear what colour the accompanying socks and shorts will be, though some have suggested they may also be black. It looks a bit like their 2001/02 effort:

To be honest though, let’s not pretend the shirt itself isn’t the main talking point…

We probably won’t have too long to wait to see if this leaked design is indeed legit. We look forward to hearing which part of the club’s history is reflected by the snakeskin effect print.
