Manchester City's three new FIFA Club World Cup kits revealed
The three kits to be introduced to the Manchester City squad for the FIFA Club World Cup have now surfaced on social media, while remaining unreleased at present. Pep Guardiola and his Manchester City players are due to return to first-team training from Monday ahead of the inaugural new edition of the Club World Cup – rebranded and expanded from the version that City claimed back in 2023. Advertisement 32 teams from across the globe will head to the United States with vast sums of prize money on offer as well as the tag of being the greatest club side on the planet, with Manchester City's place at the tournament confirmed via their UEFA Champions League win in Istanbul. But alongside the sporting merits on offer, there is also a staggering commercial gain to be had by clubs, and it seems as though decision makers within the Etihad Stadium and at manufacturers Puma are keen to capitalise. Despite only recently unveiling the brand new traditional sky blue and white home kit for the 2025/26 season, it is believed that Manchester City will unveil a further range of strips for the Stateside tournament later this month. Advertisement As revealed by Opaleak, Manchester City will have two unique shirts to be worn by their outfield players at the upcoming FIFA Club World Cup, both of which feature sash designs while one will invoke memories of the 2010/11 third kit. The likes of Ederson and Stefan Ortega Moreno will also be handed their own unique jersey and strip for the competition, as they will likely star in a bright combination of pink and purple in the United States. It remains to be seen how many new Manchester City stars will also be on show in the brand new shirts and kits at the upcoming Club World Cup, with two deals expected to be finalised and completed this weekend alone. Advertisement The last few days have seen Etihad Stadium officials intensify their efforts of strengthening Pep Guardiola's side ahead of the new season, with a strong intention of bringing in fresh faces in time for the US-based tournament. Among the faces expected to be ready and available after completing their respective transfers from AC Milan and Wolverhampton Wanderers are central midfielder Tijjani Reijnders, as well as left-sided full-back Rayan Ait-Nouri. City will also be hopeful of finalising and completing an arrangement with Lyon to recruit France international playmaker Rayan Cherki, particularly after his stellar showing against Spain in the UEFA Nations League on Thursday night.
