On 13 May 2025, Manchester City jointly released the home kit for 2025/26. This Manchester City Jersey is held in sky blue and for the first time features the iconic white diagonal band design. This innovation is not only a homage to Manchester City's classic away kit from the 1970s, but also, through the modern design language, connects the emotions of fans from different generations.
Inheritance across time and space
The central design element of the new jersey is the white diagonal band, which in the 1970s was a striking example for the away kits of legendary players such as Summerby and Colin Bell.
Today, it is featured for the first time on the home jersey – reinterpreted with smooth lines and a futuristic style. The sky blue main colour reflects the visual characteristics of Manchester City, while the contrast between the black logo and the white band enhances the visual impact.
Resonance between fans and city
To celebrate this design, Manchester City released a creative short film. Haaland, Akanji, Greenwood, and other players were featured.
The short film was shot at the Clayton Fan Club next to the Etihad Stadium and shows the close connection between football and the community from the fans' perspective.
A variety of voices from the fans
Despite the hard work of the design team, fans' comments continue to be divided. Some praised it as "the perfect fusion of classic and innovation," while critics found the twill design too dull. However, most recognise the jersey's homage to historical elements, particularly the connection of old fans' feelings with the 1970s.
The debut phase of the Club World Cup
The Manchester City jersey for the new season will be worn for the first time at the Club World Cup in June 2025. This also reflects Manchester City’s confidence in a fresh start.
The lightweight design of the player version of the jersey could support the breakthrough of regular players like Haaland and De Bruyne. As fans said: "The blue storm never stops, and the new jersey is a new starting point for glory."
A jersey, many meanings
The Manchester City home jersey 2025/26 is not only sports equipment but also a symbol of history, technology and community. It combines half a century of glory with a diagonal band, aligns with current trends through eco-friendly technology, and strengthens emotional bonds through interaction with fans.
