Manchester United could not hide their reaction after their next season’s home kit appeared to be leaked by rapper Aitch at a music festival.
Harrison James Armstrong, popularly known as Aitch, turned up on the Pyramid stage at the Glastonbury Festival of Performing Arts wearing the new shirt.
He is a childhood Mancunian and could possibly be part of the celebrity unveiling of the shirt, which explains why he had early access to it.
According to an official statement, the club had earlier announced that the new kit would be launched on Tuesday, June 27.
Official reactions to jersey leak
BBC MOTD shared a tweet of Aitch’s photo on stage wearing the jersey, which is a traditional United Red with black neck and arm tapings and a more prominent sponsor’s logo in front.
The club’s official Twitter account replied to the tweet with a rose emoji, all but confirming it is, and fans started dropping their complaints, majorly on the big sponsor’s logo.
It was not the first time the kit was leaked. According to talkSPORT, four weeks ago, a photo of Luke Shaw wearing it was seen at an Adidas store in New York.
Erik ten Hag is fighting to wrap up his signings for next summer to get preparation ready on time.
Chelsea lower Mount’s price
Sports Brief reported that Chelsea lowered Mason Mount’s asking price and gave Manchester United a transfer boost in their pursuit of the midfielder.
The Blues initially demanded £85m for their academy product, but after seeing the player’s reluctance to commit to a new contract and could leave for free next summer, they have reduced it to £65m.
The Red Devils withdrew their interest after Chelsea rejected three bids for Mason Mount worth up to £60m and responded with a counteroffer of £58m plus £7m in add-ons.
