German giants Bayern Munich on Wednesday unveiled new home kit for the 2020-21 season. The Bundesliga champions are the first team from any of the top five European leagues to share the new kit for the upcoming campaign. The jersey as expected is predominantly red but so far has drawn negative reactions from fans who are unimpressed with the similar pattern and lack of new ideas.

Last month Bayern Munich announced their partnership with TikTok and became the first football club to strike a deal with the video-sharing app. After this news broke, fans feared that the new jersey will have TikTok embedded on it but that's not the case according to the first look.

However, fans were still disappointed with the new kit, as they believed that it has a similar pattern to the past and it lacks a fresh perspective. Here are some of the reactions.

Speaking of Bayern Munich, the Germans as usual top the Bundesliga table with seven points and are on their way to lift yet another domestic league crown. Hans Flick’s men defeated Chelsea 3-0 during their UCL tie and are clear favourites to advance after the return leg. Champions League’s restart date is not yet confirmed, but a window of August is being discussed.
