Man United away kit 25/26: New shirt design, cost of jersey and how to buy strip

Manchester United have released their new Adidas away shirt as part of the club’s 2025/26 kit in their first full season under manager Ruben Amorim.

Captain Bruno Fernandes and defender Matthijs de Ligt are among the players to have taken part in the launch for the strip.

Forward Joshua Zirkzee gave England international Kobbie Mainoo a hug at the event, telling the midfielder he “looked kind of fire” in the shirt.

Twenty-time English champions United said the design is inspired by their 1992 away shirt and revealed a number of details about the kit after announcing it in mid-July.

The shirt has a white base with a modern interpretation of a snowflake graphic in lilac, as well as plum details through a devil crest and three stripes down each shoulder.

“We wanted to reimagine one of the club’s most iconic graphics of the past and reinterpret it for the modern day in a bold new way through an updated colour palette,” said Jurgen Rank, the senior design director at Adidas.

“The rich purples work in harmony with the white base and metallic detailing. We’re excited to see it on-pitch and in the stands this season.”
