(Video) Footage shows purported new Liverpool kit on sale in store before official release

Wait 5 sec.

Video footage has emerged which shows what appears to be the Liverpool home shirt for next season on sale in one high-street retailer, despite the kit not yet being officially released.There have already been plenty of ‘leaks’ online revealing rumoured details of the Reds’ kit for 2026/27, which’ll be their second campaign with Adidas back as the manufacturer, with some usually accurate sources hinting at a darker shade of red and a speckled diamond design reminiscent of the late 1980s and early 90s.DOWNLOAD THE OFFICIAL EMPIRE OF THE KOP APP FOR ALL THE LATEST & BREAKING UPDATES – STRAIGHT TO YOUR PHONE!
