Manchester United Launch New Home Kit for 2021/22 Season

Manchester United's new home kit for the 2021/22 season has been officially unveiled.

United formally revealed their new home shirt on Thursday morning ahead of their first pre-season match of the summer, after it appeared to have accidentally gone live early on the other side of the world.

Adidas Australia put the new home jersey up for sale in the early hours of Thursday morning, including a promotional picture which showed teenage star Hannibal Mejbri modelling the product.

A product description on the manufacturer's official website references the words 'youth, courage and success' as the inspiration behind the new home shirt - with those three words emblazoned inside the neck of the kit.

"The thee pillars of Manchester United's motto have brought the club more than a century of triumphs," the description reads. "With its clean red design and white ribbed crewneck, this adidas authentic football jersey takes inspiration from the iconic kit that carried them to some of their most memorable moments.

"Built to perform on the pitch, it combines cooling HEAT.RDY with lightweight details. A devil sign-off on the back shows your pride. This product is made with Primegreen, a series of high-performance recycled materials."

Mejbri and Aaron Wan-Bissaka are two of the senior players seen modelling the shirt online, while Luke Shaw and Amad have also been pictured in it.

Meanwhile, Jadon Sancho, 21, arrived at United’s Carrington training complex on Tuesday for a medical and is expected to be unveiled as a United player imminently.

England international Sancho is due to be off for three weeks following the end of the European Championship and could make his United bow at Old Trafford in their final pre-season friendly against Everton on August 7.
