Manchester City’s 2024/25 home shirt is set to pay homage to the region’s dialling code, 0161, according to a reliable football kit source. The new design, expected to be released in May 2024, will feature the ‘0161 graphic’ on both the collar and cuffs as a reference to Manchester and Greater Manchester.

As the current football season nears its end, details about upcoming campaigns are starting to emerge, with fans eagerly anticipating new signings and developments. Manchester City supporters are now excited about the new kit release, which will continue to be in the traditional sky blue color with navy and turquoise accents.

While details about City’s away and third kits remain private, early leaks suggest that they may be similar to previous editions from 2012/13 and the historic 1999 play-off final jersey. The bold move to incorporate the region’s dialling code in the design shows a unique and creative approach by the club and their kit manufacturer, Puma, which has sparked discussion and debate among fans.
