Man City launch new 2022/23 home kit and make bold badge change

Manchester City have unveiled their new kit ahead of the upcoming 2022/23 campaign, which pays homage to club legend Colin Bell and City's swashbuckling sides of the late 1960s.

The strip is a throwback to past designs with the club crest boldly moved to the centre of the shirt. City will still be wearing their classic light blue, but the shirt has maroon trimming around the neck and sleeve cuffs. The kit has been inspired by Bell, who helped City to domestic glory and the European Cup Winners' Cup during his iconic 14-year spell in Manchester.

Bell - who netted 14 goals in 35 appearances in 1968 to fire City to their first league title in 31 years - sadly passed away in January 2021. And the man affectionately dubbed as 'Colin the King' has been honoured by City and kit manufacturers Puma, who have included a crown on the neckline of the new shirt.
