Revealed: The kit we'll wear at Wolves

Wednesday 25 August 2021 10:00

United's three kits for 2021/22 have been a big hit with supporters, with each of the trio polling strongly when we asked Reds to vote for their favourite via the club's Official App.

So far this season, we've seen the first team in just two of the strips, however: our smart new home kit and the very popular third kit.
 
We wore our red home number in all four pre-season games, and then unveiled it on the competitive stage with the memorable 5-1 thrashing of Leeds United at Old Trafford.
 
In our first Premier League away of the campaign – Sunday's 1-1 draw with Southampton – we gave the dark blue third kit its maiden voyage.
 
But when will the striking away kit get its first outing?
The answer, we can reveal, is our very next Premier League game: Sunday's meeting with Wolves at Molineux (kick-off 16:30 BST).
 
Inspired by the 'snowflake' kit of 1990-92 – arguably made famous by Lee Sharpe's stunning hat-trick at Highbury in 1990 – our current away strip is another hugely popular effort which has already made its presence felt on the terraces.
 
And while our Under-23s have already worn it, for a 2-2 draw with Kidderminster, this will be your first chance to see it on Bruno Fernandes, Paul Pogba and all the rest.
 
Our change strip might not be the only item in line for its first-team debut, either.
Could this be the match where serial Champions League winner Raphael Varane makes his United bow? The Real Madrid legend was on the bench for Sunday's trip to St Mary's and is building up his fitness every day at Carrington.
 
There might also be a start for Jadon Sancho, who has made cameos in each of our first two Premier League games, but is still waiting to be named in the starting line-up for the very first time.
 
Needless to say, both are bound to look great in our new away kit!
