Manchester United have released their new away kit for the 2021-22 season with a blue design
It was Giggs’ first United away kit after making his debut for the club, and Sir Alex Ferguson’s men wore it for the 1992 League Cup final when they edged Brian Clough’s Nottingham Forest at the old Wembley.
Back then the jersey represented the iconic Sharp sponsor, while the modern adaptation sports a new name.
Team Viewer have replaced Chevrolet for the new season after signing a £47m-a-season deal, and the understated red logo helps the kit stay faithful to its 90’s roots.
United open their season by hosting old rivals Leeds United at Old Trafford, but will likely don the away strip for their second game against Southampton at St Mary’s.
The kit was supposed to be debuted in a friendly against Preston on Saturday, which has now been cancelled amid a Covid scare.
