Man City launch 2025/26 home shirt | OneFootball

Manchester City have unveiled the club's new home shirt for the 2025/26 season, incorporating a white sash onto the traditional sky blue jersey.

The sash holds fond memories in City's history, first appearing on away kits in the 1970s and honoured in further change designs in the 1990s, 2000s and 2010s.

But in what Puma call "creating a connection to the past with a futuristic design" and "bridging the gap between different generations of City fans", this is the first sash ever seen on a home shirt.

"Kits hold special memories for players and fans. The sash has always been a loved design that people remember fondly, and I'm delighted to see it return this year, on a home kit," City legend Mike Summerbee commented on the release.

"It was also an honour to be part of the kit launch video. I hope fans around the world enjoy the video and that this kit brings more special memories for the club."

Available in authentic, worn by the players and loaded with the latest technology, and replica versions, the latter is made using at least 95% recycled textile waste.

City will finish the current Premier League season, as well as contest this weekend's FA Cup final, in the 2024/25 strip, but the new design will then be used at the summer's FIFA Club World Cup.

Their first game of the competition will be against Morocco's Wydad on 18 June in Philadelphia.
