Liverpool fans have been reacting to leaked images of the club’s new Nike kit for the 2020/21 campaign.
The club overcame a High Court battle which saw current kit supplier New Balance have their case dismissed after the American company believed they had triggered the right to match Nike’s offer.
As the relationship between the two appeared to be broken beyond repair, sports retail giants Nike will now make the Merseyside club’s kit for the first time in their history.
Footy Headlines revealed that their third shirt for the next campaign will feature a subtle black and grey chequered pattern on the socks with ‘pinkish-red’ logos. The shirt will be dark grey with black shorts.
