On Tuesday morning, the Treble-winners published a video revealing their new shirt, featuring Erling Haaland, Jack Grealish, and new player Mateo Kovacic.
The new uniform is marketed as ‘driven by City,’ with electricity being a prominent element on the shirt to represent ‘the throbbing vitality and dynamism’ of their Manchester home.

The club’s Twitter account shared a 51-second video of players posing in their new uniforms amid a Tokyo-inspired cityscape, with fluorescent lighting enhancing a dimly-lit backdrop in the Tokyo Kabuki Hall.

The clip mentions Tokyo as another source of inspiration for their new appearance, as the kit was exclusively released there while the team was on a pre-season tour.
The new City jersey is undoubtedly eye-catching, and player-turned-kit-model Grealish is already a fan of the garment he hopes to wear often in 2023-24.
The uniform, designed by global sportswear giants Puma, is based on the striking navy blue kit worn during the club’s inaugural season at the stadium.

The stadium’s postcode is displayed on the back of the collar, and the jersey is finished with a white V-neck, which is identical to the design used for Etihad’s debut kit, the 2003-04 home strip.
The vintage design pays homage to the club’s 20th anniversary at the Etihad Stadium.
With the start of the 2023-24 season less than two weeks away, there is yet to be an announcement of an away kit for Pep Guardiola’s team.
