Man City new home shirt breaks sales record

Manchester City enjoyed their best ever kit launch as the new home strip saw record sales on the opening day.

The highly-anticipated home shirt for the 2022/23 season designed by Puma was officially released on Thursday morning after weeks and months of speculation. Paying homage to a golden era in City's history, the shirt has the club badge centrally and features a maroon trim to give a retro feel.

There has also been special attention paid to Colin Bell, City's greatest ever player who wore the shirt with aplomb in the 1960s and 1970s. A crown symbol inside the neck of the shirt carries the words 'The King', a nod to Bell's nickname.
