It looks very likely that Manchester United will be back in black when playing on the road in 2020-21. Photos of the new United away kit can be seen below. While neither the club, nor the manufacturer Adidas has officially confirmed that this is the new strip, it’s out here circulating like wildfire today, and most of the reactions have been quite kind.
It seems that most supporters like the new look, first published on JerseyReview via FootyHeadlines.

We agree with those who are giving this shirt a favorable response; like Wesley Snipes said in Passenger 57: “always bet on black.” The public response here was the polar opposite of last month, when the new “leaked” home kit for 2020-21 made the internet rounds.
Most of the reactions to that shirt were disapproving, to say the least. For those who said it looks like a bus/train seat cover…ha. Very accurate.
