The away kit City will supposedly wear next term

Man City away kit for 2020/21 'leaked' and fans think it's the worst design so far

Manchester City's away kit for 2020/21 appears to have been leaked.

Manchester City's away kit for the 2020/21 season is the latest design to be 'leaked' online, showing a navy blue and gold pattern.

City's home and third kits have supposedly been circulating online, with a cracked sky blue design for the home shirt and a paisley pattern for the third shirt drawing a mainly negative response from fans unhappy with the designs.

There was hope, then, that the away kit would be better, with previous 'leaked' information apparently showing a design based on Manchester's architecture on a navy blue shirt. An image of a training top showed this pattern only on the sleeves, with the torso plain blue.

However, the new 'leaked' away top shows the same pattern but over most of the shirt, with the sleeves instead left plain 'denim blue'. The City badge and sponsor logos appear to be in a shade of pink, rather than the gold colour that had been rumoured previously.

The design on the shirt is apparently a nod to the architecture in the Castlefield area of Manchester.

After being left unimpressed with the home and third shirt designs, fans were similarly deflated by the latest 'leaked' effort, taking to Twitter to express their disappointment - although some fans did approve of the design in comparison to the home and third shirts.

Meanwhile, FootyHeadlines have also offered a fresh suggestion at what the controversial third kit design might look like, collaborating with Pro Evolution Soccer kit designer @nikita_23k to add shorts and socks to the shirt.

The computer-generated graphics show the paisley design only on the front of the shirt, with a plain back for the player name and squad number, while the blue shorts and white socks make the kit slightly more appealing to some fans.
