Chelsea unveil their new away kit for 2025-26 season and will debut it in Club World Cup - as they bizarrely pay tribute to HUNGARY in strip
Chelsea have revealed their new away kit for the 2025-26 season.
A standard shirt for an adult weighs in at £84.99.
The Blues will give their new strips their first outings at the Club World Cup in the United States, where they will face LAFC, Flamengo, and ES Tunis in the group stages.
Surprisingly, the story of Chelsea's away kit is rooted in 1950s Hungary.
Former Chelsea manager Dave Sexton - who won the FA Cup and European Cup Winners' Cup in the early 1970s - loved the 'Magnificent Magyars' Hungarian team of the '50s so much that he introduced a red, white and green kit in tribute to the nation's colours.
Now, Chelsea have paid tribute to that old jersey by adding green and red lines down the centre of their white away shirt.
Nicolas Jackson, Noni Madueke, and Kadeisha Buchanan modelled the gear in the Saatchi Gallery in London.
Their blue home kit went on sale a few weeks ago.

Several Spurs players were reportedly disappointed by the club's decision to axe the Aussie, whom Romero paid a heartfelt tribute to less than an hour after Spurs confirmed Frank as their new manager. Along with a picture of himself and his former manager, the Argentina international wrote on Instagram: " Ange, thank you for these two incredible seasons. "You're a fantastic coach, but above all, a great person who deserves the best. "From day one you paved the way despite the many obstacles that always existed and always will exist. "Beyond everything, we won a trophy and went down in the history of this beautiful club, which is the only thing that matters. "I wish you the best because you deserve the best, and thank you for everything." Frank joins Spurs following nearly TEN years with Brentford, whom he joined as an assistant manager in December 2016 before becoming head coach in October 2018.

"That night in Bilbao was the culmination of two years of hard work, dedication and unwavering belief in a dream. "There were many challenges to overcome and plenty of noise that comes with trying to accomplish what many said was not possible. "We have also laid the foundations that means this club should not have to wait 17 more years for their next success. "I have enormous faith in this group of players and know there is much more potential and growth in them."
