THE world’s leading clubs are trying to keep next season’s football kits under wraps.
But already we’ve caught a glimpse of what the likes of Manchester United, Arsenal, Chelsea and Spurs will have the stars wearing for 2021-2022.
Thanks to various leaks online, many shared by FootyHeadlines, we’ve seen some strips.
Here’s a round-up of what we know so far.
MAN UTD HOME AND AWAY
The Red Devils will reportedly feature a clean look – without any graphic elements.
It is expected to be the same colour as this year’s – ‘Real Red’ – and feature Chevrolet as the sponsor, after the car giants extended their deal at the end of 2020.
The collar is predicted to be a crew neck, and three red or white stripes could be on the shoulders.
But it’s the away jersey that might trend most with the fashionistas – doffing its cap at a 1990’s jersey with its blue graphic print and red logos.
ARSENAL HOME AND THIRD
Like United, the Gunners have Adidas on board for their kit design.
A home shirt we’ve seen is scarlet red with white sleeves and side panels.
The three stripes on the shoulders are said to be navy, with that colour also prevalent on the collar and cuffs on the sleeves.
While a third kit has also been leaked and that adopts a ‘mystery blue’ design with maroon and white colour combinations.
Reports suggest a new home jersey will be released in the summer.
CHELSEA HOME
The Blues’ kit is made by Nike and FootyHeadlines are 90 per cent sure they’re on the money with this prediction.
It is a very different look to this season’s shirt, with a zig-zag and checker print all over it.
The lyon blue colour is complimented by yellow logos and stripes on the side.
The shirt will feature a v-collar, FootyHeadlines claim.
TOTTENHAM HOME
Nike’s new Spurs effort appears to be quite traditional.
In classic white, it’s not very forgiving if you’re clumsy with a ketchup-filled bacon sarnie on your way to the game.
Like this season’s top, it features blue – but they’ve done away with the yellow accents Kane and Co have worn during their campaign.
Inside the collar is the club’s first ever badge, although that can’t be seen when worn.
LIVERPOOL AWAY
Kit predictors JCRide have come up with this possible design for Liverpool’s away jersey for next season – based on sources they’ve spoken to.
It is fossil in colour, with red logos on the chest, as well as a red crew neck collar and sleeve cuffs with red trim.
LFC watermarks are featured on the body of the shirt, while shorts are black and the socks are the same colour as the jersey.
Standard Chartered is the continued sponsor.
BARCELONA HOME
The big question is; will Lionel Messi be wearing this jersey next season?
It’s a different design as usual for the Catalans – inspired by the club’s badge.
Where normally you’d see blue and red stripes or halves, the graphic from the badge makes up the shirt from the front.
It will reportedly be combined with half and half shorts.
BAYERN MUNICH HOME AND AWAY
The German and world champions reportedly have two new kits for next season.
Their home effort, as predicted by FootyHeadlines, will feature ‘craft red and white’ as colours for the shirt.
It will have three Adidas stripes on the shoulder, and feature maroon shorts.
As for an away prediction, a concept by @hendocfc, again has the three stripes on the shoulder.
It is black with red as a secondary colour used on the collar and logos.
JUVENTUS HOME
Juventus are apparently going back to basics with their design.
In past seasons, they’ve broken up their stripes with a half and half design or a brushstroke pattern.
But this features four white and five black stripes on the front, sleeves, and lower back of the jersey.
The Adidas and club logos are also now said to be in white – originally expected to be in gold.
It is a themed jersey to celebrate the 10th anniversary since the Serie A giants moved from Stadio delle Alpi to the Allianz Stadium.
So, what’s your favourite strip?
