      by

      Newport announced their partnership with Goldie Lookin’ Chain on Wednesday and claimed they were ‘rolling back the years’.
      The EFL outfit first collaborated with the group for a kit in 2004-05, when GLC were at their peak and the Exiles were a non-league team.
      GLC are a comedy rap group from Newport, who achieved national fame in 2004 with the release of ‘Guns Don’t Kill People Rappers Do’.
      The song charted at No3 and the group went on achieve six Top 40 singles before fading from the limelight during the mid-noughties.
      GLC’s songs joked about ‘chav’ culture and life in South Wales during that era – and the band continue to make music and perform today.
      Newport’s website reads: “The Exiles and GLC want to celebrate our city’s unique heritage and culture, so we thought now would be an excellent time to celebrate the famous jersey and bring it back up to speed.

      “Featuring a two-colour heritage check with entwined GLC logos, this County x GLC shirt is sure to be one for collectors.
      “The design is predominantly sesame and consists of a check pattern, which is made up of red and black lines across the front of the shirt.
      “The club crest has also been modified to a blacked-out special edition to blend in with the rest of the shirt.”
      Reception of Newport’s fresh kit has been mixed, with some fans on social media loving it and others not so keen.
      One tweeted: “Ordered. Looking forward to getting my hands on the worst/best football shirt ever made.”
      But another wrote: “Is this real or just a p*** take?”
      And one supporter tweeted: “Going to need to get myself one of these beauties.”

      Kylian Mbappe unveils new PSG Nike away kit in tribute to Greater Paris and fans love it

      by

      PARIS SAINT-GERMAIN have unveiled their new Nike away kit and fans can’t get enough of it. Kylian Mbappe and Neymar posed in the new kit, which the club says is an ode to Greater Paris, in an ad campaign alongside new signings Sergio Ramos and Georginio Wijnaldum.

      Neymar also featured in the ad campaign for the new strip which is an ode to Greater Paris
      They shared their latest strip on Twitter and won’t have any problems selling any judging by their supporter’s reactions.
      One user wrote: “This club has the best.”
      While another said: “Cleannnnnnnn.”
      This was the general feeling amongst most fans who also lauded praise on the new design.
      The shirt is predominantly grey, with a pink and black stripe running down the middle of its front.
      A club statement said: “The daring and innovative pieces feature the club’s classic themes – logo, stripe down the middle, lily flower – and pay tribute to Greater Paris, which is symbolised with references to postmodern architecture from the early 1970s, the Ile-de-France postcodes, and the use of ‘Paname’ a slang word for Paris and its suburbs.” 
      Some fans had already sneaked a peek at PSG’s new-look after it was leaked online earlier this month.
      It’s become the norm for the Ligue 1 runners-up, who missed out on the title to Lille, to chop and change their kits over the last few years.
      In 2018, they wore a strip made by basketball legend Michael Jordan’s Nike spin-off brand in the Champions League in a bid to boost their overseas profile.
      And it’s not just PSG’s shirt designs that’s had a revamp, there’s been a number of changes made to their squad this summer too.
      In a shrewd bit of business, they signed ex-Real Madrid ace Ramos, ex-Liverpool star Wijnaldum and Italy’s Euro 2020 winning keeper Gianluigi Donnarumma on free transfers.
      Ramos, who left Los Blancos after 16 years, penned a two-year deal with Mauricio Pochettino’s side earlier this month.
      The Spain defender will be on lower wages at PSG than the approximately £310,000-a-week he earned at Madrid.
      The Paris side swooped in at the last minute and stole Dutch midfielder Wijnaldum right from under Barcelona’s noses and he signed a three-year contract with them.
      And ex-AC Milan keeper Donnarumma will be at the club for the next five years.
      The trio are joined at the Le Parc des Princes stadium by defender Achraf Hakimi.

      It remains to be seen if Pochettino’s new troops will feature in their new kit alongside want-away mega-star Mbappe.
      The 22-year-old’s contract talks with the club has hit the skids over his wage demands and he’s been heavily linked with a move to the Bernabeu.

      Ukraine’s Euro 2020 kit sparks outrage in Russia by including Crimea in map of country on front of shirt

      by

      RUSSIA have been left furious by Ukraine’s Euro 2020 kit that includes a map of their country including Crimea.Ukraine unveiled their new yellow strip on Sunday ahead of the start of the tournament.

      It includes a map of their nation on the front of their shirt.
      Much to Russia’s anger, the Crimean peninsula is included in the design.
      Also on the kit are the slogans ‘Glory to Ukraine!’ and ‘Glory to the heroes!’
      The pro-Russian separatist-controlled regions of Donetsk and Lugansk also feature in the silhouette.
      Russia annexed Crimea in 2014, considering the area to be part of their territory.
      Though this has been rejected internationally, with the United Nations still recognising Crimea as being part of Ukraine.
      Both phrases on the kit have become widely used in Ukraine in the military as well as by supporters of the 2014 revolution that forced out pro-Moscow president Viktor Yanukovych, who now lives in Russia.
      According to the BBC, Uefa have approved Ukraine’s shirt and the country’s head of the Football Association Andriy Pavelko lauded their design.
      He wrote on his Facebook page: “We believe that the silhouette of Ukraine will give strength to the players, because they will fight for all Ukraine.
      “And all Ukraine, from Sevastopol and Simferopol to Kyiv, from Donetsk and Lugansk to Uzhgorod will support them in every match.”

      But Russian parliamentary deputy Dmitry Svishchev hit out at Ukraine’s kit, saying that the design is a “a political provocation”.
      He then claimed that showing a map of Ukraine “which includes a Russian territory is illegal”.
      Meanwhile Russian foreign ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharov took to social media where she stated that the slogans used on the shirts echoed a German Nazi rallying cry.
      Relations between the two countries deteriorated sharply following the annexation of Crimea in 2014.
      Things got worse after the start of a Russian-backed separatist rebellion in eastern Ukraine in 2014.

      Real Madrid used Eden Hazard as a model for the new strip, suggesting the injury-prone star could stay, despite rumours saying he wants to leave.
      Hazard has seen his game-time sorely limited since joining from Chelsea in a deal worth up to £150million in the summer of 2019.

      The Belgian, 30, has been linked with a return to the Blues to get his career back on track.
      But Hazard himself has quashed the gossip, saying: “I still have a three-year contract with Real Madrid, so going back to England is out of the question.
      “Everyone knows that my first two years were not good, so first I want to prove myself at Real Madrid. I will do everything to do that.
      “I certainly don’t see myself leaving Madrid, given the contract situation.
      “I know myself and I know when I’m in shape. If that’s the case, I can give it my all for Real next season. That’s my plan.”
