Liverpool unveil new home kit paying tribute to Anfield icon Bill Shankly

Liverpool's home kit for the 2023-24 season will pay tribute to legendary manager Bill Shankly with a nod to the kit worn in the Reds' last season under the Scottish boss.

The unveiling marks the 50th anniversary of Shankly's farewell campaign, which ended with the Reds winning the FA Cup. Roy Evans, who later managed the club, was a member of the squad along with the likes of Kevin Keegan and Phil Thompson.

A red shirt with a white collar and cuffs, the new shirt is said to be inspired by the one worn by Shankly's Liverpool team half a century ago. On the back is a nod to the victims of the Hillsborough disaster, with the 97 emblem and eternal flames to honour the lives lost after the 1989 incident.
