Inspired by the 1990s, the dark blue shirt includes a diamond pattern and gold trim.

The club have also described the Nike jersey as the “perfect look for Chelsea away”.

However, supporters have pointed out the kit’s similarities to Chelsea’s traditional blue home shirt.

They fear it may limit the club’s opportunities to wear their new away strip.

One concerned fan tweeted: “Why would your away kit be almost identical in colour to your home kit??”

Another added: “How can the home & away kit colour clash?”

A third fan also wrote: “I like it but I thought an away shirt was meant to be a different colour to blue.”

Meanwhile, one more commented: “Of course Chelsea decide to have two kits of very similar colours for the season.”
