Manchester City have unveiled their third uniform for the next season, which has sky blue and pink design on a dark shirt.
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.
Sky blue lightning bolts flow across a dark jersey, with a pink puma emblem, sponsor label, and badge.
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.

Grealish acknowledged to like the club’s new shirt, which will be unveiled in Tokyo on Wednesday.
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 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.
‘I absolutely love the new third kit, it is a proper eye-catcher and will look brilliant on pitch – I can’t wait to wear it in our match against Bayern Munich this week in Tokyo,’ he said.
‘It has been an amazing experience to visit and shoot our campaign in Tokyo, it’s an incredible place and it’s great that we can unveil our new kit here during pre-season.’
City’s kit is made of ULTRAWEAVE fabric, which has a four-way stretch construction that lowers weight and friction, giving players more comfort and flexibility of movement on the field.
It also has dryCELL technology fabric, which is designed to minimize sweat and is created entirely of recycled materials.
The outfit will make its debut on July 26 against Bayern Munich at Japan National Stadium.
As they prepare for their Treble defense, the Citizens have already unveiled their new home kit.

Manchester City’s home shirt for the 2023-24 season has been revealed.
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 the 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.
