The shirt is launched as part of the club’s pre-season tour of the US, and will be worn for the first time against Barcelona in Washington D.C. on 28 July.

The kit features a white, red and blue colour scheme which has been the theme of a number of classic away kits over the past 110 years. A white kit was also worn by the club across its UEFA Champions League-winning season in 2012 and was last seen as a design scheme in the 2013/14 season when Jose Mourinho returned as manager for his second spell in charge.
