Confirmed: When United will wear the new home kit

Tuesday 04 August 2020 09:00

Manchester United's 2020/21 home kit has been released around the world and we can exclusively confirm the Reds will debut our new adidas strip at Old Trafford on Wednesday night.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s men will have a fresh look about them when facing LASK in the UEFA Europa League, with a place in the quarter-finals of the European competition up for grabs. 

United hold a 5-0 lead over the Austrian club following a convincing first-leg victory way back in March and kick-off for the return fixture is scheduled for 20:00 BST.

The match will be broadcast live in the UK via BT Sport and, of course, you can follow unrivalled updates via our Official App and ManUtd.com. 

MUTV will also be live at the Theatre of Dreams from 18:55 BST to supply brilliant build-up, radio commentary of the action and exclusive reaction to the outcome. 

Make sure you support the lads on Wednesday night and see our new kit in action for the first time. 
THE STORY OF THE KIT

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has repeatedly spoken about the United DNA during his reign as manager, as the Norwegian club legend instills the values of the club that he is so passionate about.  

Club partner adidas says the home jersey for 2020/21 encapsulates the DNA of the club, by using the threads of the crest itself to produce a subtly patterned base fabric. 

Taking influence from the intricacies of the yarn-stitched application onto the shirt, a fine graphic print provides a unique pattern and detailing onto a colour-block background. The name of the club is also proudly engineered into the print, visible through the use of different red tones. 
The adidas product team achieved this nuanced design through an innovative ‘space dye’ technique that allows separate yarns to be dyed individually, and at different lengths, to give a finish with depth and with full details only viewable by the wearer. 

It is available to buy today exclusively at adidas.com/football, adidas stores and United Direct

Wider release with select retailers will be available from 11 August 2020.
