Manchester United have officially released their new away kit for the forthcoming 2022/23 season under Erik ten Hag.
Cristiano Ronaldo featured in the home kit launch last week but he has as yet been nowhere to be seen with the initial launch of the away strip.
New Manchester United away kit launched
The away colours for the season ahead are white with black and red trim, which are traditional for United.
That was referred to in the launch video posted on Instagram, which featured historic white kits from the club’s past.
It would have been great to see Christian Eriksen help launch the new kit, but it seems he joined too late to be part of the promotional material.
Tyrell Malacia is the only other confirmed signing so far, and it will be good to see him in the new colours on the pre-season tour.
Lisandro Martinez, who was of course managed by ten Hag at Ajax, is also set make the move from the Netherlands to United and supporters can expect to see him in the new strip next term also.
We all hope to see Frenkie de Jong in this change jersey at Old Trafford in 2022/23, with a fee now agreed, but other issues still to sort.
Everyone should now be sufficiently forewarned that buying a Cristiano Ronaldo shirt is a huge risk, amid uncertainty whether he will play for the club next season.
United’s next game is on Tuesday against Crystal Palace in Australia, and it seems likely now that we will wear the new shirt in that one.
Aston Villa are next up after that, so the white top should get an outing before United head home for matches on consecutive days to see out July and pre-season as a whole.
