Man City drop Jack Grealish transfer hint as they launch stunning new kit for Club World Cup
MANCHESTER CITY have unveiled their kit for the 2025/26 season and dropped a hint over Jack Grealish’s future.
Pep Guardiola‘s side will wear the new home shirt at this summer’s Club World Cup in the US.
Puma have gone for a white sash across the club’s iconic sky blue jersey.
The diagonal stripe is a nod to City kits from the 70s as it has been seen on old away strips.
Grealish is one of the stars modelling the new look alongside the likes of Phil Foden, Erling Halaand and Mateo Kovacic.
And fans reckon having him as the poster boy suggests he is staying at City beyond the summer.
It comes amid rumours of Grealish’s departure after a tough season in which he has scored just three goals and started only seven Premier League games.
Tottenham, Aston Villa and Napoli are all interested in signing him.
Grealish was not, however, seen in the promotional video to launch the new kit.
The clip stars actor John Thompson hosting a talent show as stars like Foden, Haaland, Manuel Akanji, Oscar Bobb and Ederson take to the stage to perform.
Former players Micah Richards, Joleon Lescott and Mike Summerbee also have cameo roles.
The video was filmed at the Clayton Official Supporters Club just around the corner from the Etihad Stadium.
Puma say the sash home shirt “creates a connection to the past with a futuristic design, bridging the gap between different generations of City fans”.
The German sportswear brand’s chief Marco Mueller said: “We’re so excited to be featuring the iconic sash, made famous from away days of old, on the home kit for the first time.
“Both in this kit and all our kits for this upcoming season, fans across the world will be reminded that with our partnership we do things differently and want to push the boundaries in terms of design, creativity and innovation”.
The kit is available in the City shop for £85 and the authentic jersey costs £130.
