Manchester United have released their new 2019/20 home strip, with a sleek and stylish design created by adidas.

The new United home kit pays homage to the incredible 1998/1999 season in which the club made history by becoming the first club ever, and since, to win the Premier League, FA Cup and Champions League; completing the iconic treble.

History was made 20 years ago to clinch the treble, following an epic Champions League final, which saw United battle back from behind to defeat Bayern Munich 2-1 in Barcelona, with goals from Teddy Sheringham and, now Red Devils manager, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

The minutes of when those famous goals were scored – the 91st and 93rd respectively – are shown on each sleeve of the new adidas jersey for the forthcoming season. The dates of the three title wins are also displayed along the bottom of the shirt.

An all new commemorative crest design of bold black with gold stitching, taking inspiration from the one worn that season, completes the shirt.

Available from adidas stores, adidas.com and official club stores exclusively from Thursday, for a period of seven days, the shirt is accompanied with white shorts and black socks.

The new United home kit will be worn for the first time on pitch in an anniversary game v Bayern at Old Trafford on May 26 – exactly 20 years to the day of the Camp Nou final. It will feature players who played in the famous match. Price: Dh399.
