Manchester City fans have been sharing their love for their club's new home kit this morning. Taking to Twitter, City revealed their shirt for the 2022-23 season.
As to be expected, the jersey is predominantly sky blue but has a notable maroon trim around the collar and sleeves. Explaining the choice of design on the club website, City said that the kit takes inspiration from their late 1960s shirt which was proudly worn by Colin 'The King' Bell.
