CHELSEA fans are furious after seeing the Blues 2024/25 away kit “leaked” with some calling it an “England shirt with design tweaks.”
Nike has already been slashed over their controversial England shirt design but now they have Chelsea fans on their case too.
Over the years the west London outfit has showcased a variety of jerseys but some have been more popular than others.
There have been some quite outrageous shirts on show at Stamford Bridge – one of which being the 1994/95 away jersey, as famously worn by Ruud Gullit.
Now, a leaked image of the 2024/25 away kit has fans fuming.
Footy Headlines unveiled the new fit on X which features a white shirt with royal blue on the collar and sleeves, along with a red strip.

While another fan even went on to describe the strip as “hideous”.
It seems the club are ditching the dark colour scheme as their current away shirt is “pitch blue and soar shades”.
Last term’s away jersey was white, then yellow in 2021/22; light blue in 2020/21, and white, with a collar, in 2019/20.
Fans will now eagerly await the reveal of the club’s third strips, goalkeeper tops, training gear, and matchday attire to see what surprises Chelsea have in store for the upcoming season.
Meanwhile, England’s football team has been making headlines recently for a new kit that has been dividing fans with its rebranding of the St George’s flag.
Tory PM Rishi Sunak slammed the new kit, while opposition leader Sir Keir Starmer joined calls for Nike to scrap it entirely.
