Man Utd 2025/26 home kit ‘LEAKED' as fans fume ‘Adidas aren't even trying anymore'
Manchester United fans are seeing red and not in a good way after the club's new home kit was leaked online.
The 2025/26 Adidas-made strip has sparked fury across social media with furious Reds supporters slamming the red shirt with black and white collar.

Images circulating online show a minimal design with barely any detailing, aside from the iconic badge and Adidas logo — with some fans joking that 'Adidas aren't even trying anymore.'
One fan fumed on X: 'We need to ditch Adidas at the earliest opportunity.
"Ironically the 'bus seat' kit (which I hated) is the best of the bunch here.'
Another joked: 'Matches the quality of football at Old Trafford in recent years.'
The kit includes an Old Trafford-inspired sleeve graphic, marking the first time in many years that Manchester United has featured sleeve prints on their home shirts.
The words ' Theatre of Dreams' are printed on the collar and the kit will be available at some point this month, with white shorts and black socks as the primary combination.
Some fans, however, aren't impressed by the design details, comparing it to previous seasons.
One commented: 'Pretty much a blend of the last two seasons' kits, very bland, Adidas are definitely running out of new kit ideas.'
Adidas, who signed a £900 million mega-deal with United in 2015 for 10 years, are now facing mounting pressure from fans to show more creativity and respect for the club's rich heritage.
One tongue-in-cheek post read: 'Next season they'll just hand us red vests and say it's 'retro'.'
United have yet to officially unveil the kit but if the online backlash is anything to go by, they might want to head back to the drawing board.
United's poor performance on the pitch has left fans fuming.
They finished 15th in the league and lost the Europa League final to Tottenham, who hadn't won a trophy in 17 years.

Lambourn stuns red-hot favourite Delacroix to land master trainer Aidan O'Brien an 11th Derby
AIDAN O'BRIEN'S No2 Lambourn stunned his big hope Delacroix to land the Derby - as a load of the big guns flopped in the £1.5million Epsom blockbuster. Lambourn, who was sent off 13-2, hit the front early and was never for catching under loyal jockey Wayne Lordan. Ryan Moore never really got into it on red-hot favourite Delacroix and finished ninth, beaten 16 lengths. And, for once, the world's best jockey had to play second best to Lordan - who he beat into second in the Oaks on Friday. There was a huge result for syndicate Middleham Park as their 50-1 Lazy Griff, trained by Charlie Johnston, came second. While Aidan's son Joseph was third with 28-1 Tennessee Stud. Juddmonte had the fourth home with 50-1 New Ground. O'Brien said: "Wayne gave him an incredible ride - he is a great fella and has done so much hard work throughout the years. "The horse is very straightforward and Wayne knew he would stay. "I'm delighted for Wayne and couldn't be happier. "The lads put in everything and I am just delighted to be on their coat tails!"

Lionel Richie, O2 Arena: a glorified karaoke show, and you'd be mad not to sing along
'I am not the show,' Lionel Richie declared to the O2 Arena. 'The show is the audience.' That might have sounded a tad rich coming from a Grammy-winning R&B hitmaker in a fancy jacket on a gloss-black stage, accompanied by an even glossier grand piano and regular bouts of dry ice. But in a way, he was right. A Lionel Richie show isn't just a chance to salute the legacy of a household name. It's also an enjoyably glorified karaoke night, and from the first song 'Hello' – the obvious opener, after the affable balladeer had risen majestically from beneath the thrust stage – the crowd were in fine singing fettle. 'When you come to my show, the last person you'll hear singing is me,' he later jested. Particularly so when that show is part of a greatest hits tour, as this was. An opening montage charted the career of the Alabamian tennis scholarship kid who joined a college R&B band eventually called the Commodores, made a few multi-platinum hits with them, then even more as a solo artist. His music has had half a century to marinate in people's lives, becoming part of culture's common parlance. It would almost be insulting not to sing along. His own voice sometimes lost out not only to the audience but to his band, who beefed up the songs and moves, often flanking him like unconventional bodyguards. Despite the occasional fluffed line, though – unlike fellow 75-year-old Bruce Springsteen, Richie doesn't rely on an autocue – for almost two age-defying hours he breezed through his discography: immortal songs built on the sturdy foundations of Motown. There was the familiar solace of Easy and Say You, Say Me, the exquisite country undercurrents of Sail On, as well as a slightly less gratifying medley of Commodores' party funk tracks including Sweet Love and Lady. Richie is an old-school showman who knows that audience interaction is as important as the music for making an arena feel intimate. He cracked jokes, grumbled about the weather, and broadcasted someone's video call to their mother on the big screen – all part of the shtick, but charming nonetheless. 'When you see me jumping and running, sliding, running up stairs, running down stairs, I want you all to know one thing: I'm in pain,' he quipped. A greatest hits show can seem as though it's operating on autopilot – especially when your hits include Dancing On The Ceiling, We Are The World (written, famously, with Michael Jackson), and All Night Long – but there was nothing impersonal about these songs, nor their singer: the night was a warm celebration of music that has meant so much to so many over the last fifty years.
