Photos that purport to show Manchester United’s new third kit have leaked online.
Footyheadlines.com have shared images of the off-white shirt, with a red collar and sponsors’ logos. The most notable change, though, is the club badge, which has been changed from the traditional crest to a simplified red devil emblem.
Although some are not too happy with the badge change, many fans on Twitter do like the colour choices that kit manufacturer Adidas have gone with:

Shame about the badge but I like it way more than the green

They should've made this the away kit instead of the green goblin one

A decent attempt from Adidas
As some have said, it will probably go down better than United‘s away jersey, with its green/white design and red pinstripes not to many people’s liking.
It’s fair to say that Adidas’s kits for the new season are a mixed bag, and it remains to be seen how well the shirts will sell.
When is United’s third kit released?
It is believed that the shirt will be on general sale on Tuesday, August 8th, so supporters won’t have to wait long before getting their hands on it.
Considering it is a third kit, it is hard to know how many times it will be actually worn by the team next campaign. There aren’t expected to be many colour clashes with the green away strip but there will be chances for it to be used at certain points, although it won’t be used regularly, that’s for sure.
