Images of Manchester United kits for the 2020/21 campaign were leaked at the end of last month, and there has been some debate ever since about the garishness of the designs.
The third kit, in particular, has not gone down well with supporters on Twitter, and after one fan account reposted a photo, many were hoping that the shirt turns out to be fake:
I beg we NEVER wear it.

Are they going to pay us as fans for wearing any of these?

One question mark over the shirt is the white sponsor logo for Chevrolet, which appears to be almost hidden in the zebra pattern design.
Whether it is just an Adidas concept kit, which was then changed at a later date, or if it is simply a fake, we shall have to wait and see.
The release of the new shirts for next season is likely to be delayed by a number of months, with the postponement in fixtures meaning the current campaign is not expected to be concluded until later in the summer.
