'A classic in 10 to 15 years' - Manchester United fans react to leaked images of new away kit

Photos have leaked online of Manchester United's away kit for the 2022/23 season and many fans are happy with the final product. The new kit is white with red and black stripes on the shoulders and is reminiscent of the club's kit from the 1998/99 season.
