Manuel Akanji, Kevin De Bruyne, Jack Grealish, Erling Haaland and Ederson represented Pep Guardiola‘s side while Ellie Roebuck, Laura Coombs, Annie Hutchings and Laia Aleixandri tested out the new shirt for our WSL team.
The kit pays homage to the iconic features of the stadium and is inspired by the jersey worn during the first season at the new ground.
In August 2003, after 80 years at Maine Road, Manchester City made the momentous move three and half miles away to the Etihad Stadium.
This move marked the start of a new era for the club, defined by new records, new legends, and moments of greatness. The 2023/24 Home kit is a testament to this legacy, celebrating the Etihad Stadium and all those who call it home.
The front graphic of the new Home jersey is inspired by the unique architecture of the Etihad Stadium, in particular the four giant turrets visible from the outside of the stadium that form tonal stripes on the jersey.
The postcode of the stadium is displayed on the back of the neck to celebrate 20 years at City’s new home and the jersey features a white V-neck collar that is inspired by the first kit used in the new stadium, the 2003/04 Home jersey.
