Images purporting to show Manchester United's home, away and third kits for the 26-27 season have been published online, according to Footy Headlines, the kit-tracking website that has developed a consistent record of early strip revelations.
Footy Headlines reports that all three adidas designs for the campaign have been captured in the leak, though the club and their kit manufacturer have made no official comment. United have been in a long-term partnership with adidas, who returned as the club's technical sponsor in 2015 after a decade away.
Kit leaks of this kind have become a routine feature of the football calendar. Strips are typically manufactured months before their commercial release, and images tend to circulate through supply chains well in advance of the unveilings clubs use as marketing events. The gap between a leak and an official launch can run to several months.
For United, the timing is notable. The club have been in a period of significant transition both on and off the pitch, and new kit cycles carry commercial weight — particularly for a club whose global supporter base makes replica strip sales a meaningful revenue line. A full three-kit leak, if accurate, removes some of that marketing leverage.
The detail of the designs has not been independently verified by Touchline. Footy Headlines did not include descriptive summaries of the colourways or design elements in the version of the report available to us, so further specifics remain with the original source. United are expected to launch the kits through their usual retail channels in the coming months.
