Clubs have shown a mix of retro echoes and bold departures across a series of projected away kits.<\/p>\n<p>Arsenal\u2019s leaked away shirt has been described as a &#8220;reverse&#8221; of the club\u2019s famous \u2018Bruised Banana\u2019 design from the early 1990s. That original 1992\u201393 team finished 10th in the inaugural Premier League season as George Graham\u2019s side struggled to adapt to the new back-pass law. The reimagined concept pairs a navy base with the iconic zig-zag pattern and red and yellow accents.<\/p>\n<p>Aston Villa are expected to revisit sky blue for their away option, a shade they last used in 2022\u201323, Unai Emery\u2019s first season after the end of Steven Gerrard\u2019s tenure.<\/p>\n<p>Bournemouth have kept details tight after announcing a new manufacturer in May. &#8220;We\u2019re delighted to announce a new multi-year partnership with Hummel \u2013 a club-record kit deal for #afcb  \u2764\ufe0f\ud83d\udda4&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Chelsea\u2019s projected away kit uses Nike\u2019s &#8216;Midwest Gold&#8217; on a predominantly black base, drawing comparison with the club\u2019s 2012\u201313 strip. That season concluded with Rafael Ben\u00edtez guiding a fractious fanbase to Europa League success. The club\u2019s managerial future and the identity of any shirt sponsor remain uncertain.<\/p>\n<p>Leeds United\u2019s away proposal would reintroduce an adidas trefoil on clubwear for the first time since 2020 and is expected to feature a white Yorkshire rose within a predominantly yellow shirt.<\/p>\n<p>Liverpool\u2019s leaked image looks close to 2025\u201326, with a shade nearer to white than cream and speculation the adidas trefoil could replace the three stripes. The design may also reuse the retro badge deployed on the club\u2019s 2025\u201326 green third shirt, a shield inspired by the 1987\u201392 device.<\/p>\n<p>Puma\u2019s work for Manchester City has ranged widely; after the divisive 2025\u201326 grey and neon green mix, the next leak appears more subdued: largely black with gold trim, recalling the 2013\u201314 championship design. Manchester United are linked to a royal blue away shirt inspired by the SHARP era, while Newcastle United\u2019s projected kit draws on St. James\u2019 Park brickwork and could revive the 1976\u201383 badge with a magpie before a castle.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Leaked images and confirmed details offer a first look at several 2026-27 Premier League away kits.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":13703,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[192,1357,969],"tags":[1662,1661],"class_list":["post-13704","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-arsenal","category-club-badges","category-premier-league","tag-away-kits","tag-kit-design"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.weplayfpl.com\/news-articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13704","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.weplayfpl.com\/news-articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.weplayfpl.com\/news-articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.weplayfpl.com\/news-articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.weplayfpl.com\/news-articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=13704"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.weplayfpl.com\/news-articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13704\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.weplayfpl.com\/news-articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/13703"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.weplayfpl.com\/news-articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=13704"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.weplayfpl.com\/news-articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=13704"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.weplayfpl.com\/news-articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=13704"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
