Although a mock-up of what all three of Liverpool’s kits for next season could look like has been doing the rounds on the internet for months now, a photo of what appears to be the actual, physical product has now leaked out onto the internet.
While, of course, the club isn’t likely to comment on this apparent leak, if this is the real deal, then Kopites everywhere are being treated to a sneak peak of what the Reds will be sporting next season months before it will ever be revealed. With the Anfield outfit set to switch manufactures from the littler known Warrior Sports to the more globally recognizable and brand aware New Balance, speculation has been rife as to what the footwear giant will serve up for their first foray into the world of football shirts.
The American sportswear company, who are apparently looking to make inroads into the Asian market, officially announced that they’d be taking over kit duties from their subsidiary Warrior in October, though the guaranteed £25mil per season the Reds pick up from them hasn’t changed.
Leaked football shirts have become the new transfer rumour with all of the major clubs — and even some of the smaller ones — seeing mock-ups and apparent leaks being passed around constantly. Earlier this week, Manchester United’s home kit for next season was also made an appearance online and earned kit maker Adidas a savaging on social media for it’s design.
To be fair, it’d be hard for anyone to make a Man United shirt that wasn’t vomit inducing.
