A few hours ago, Chelsea FC unveiled their new home kit. The design of the new kit is inspired by the 60s and the fans have come up with mixed reactions. This clearly means a few fans have liked the design and the others haven't. The new kits have unique zig-zag patterns with checker print. The official account of Chelsea posted a video of the new kit on their social media account. Hakim Ziyech, Timo Werner, Sam Kerr and Pernille Harder are the ones who feature in the promotional video.

Last one
They should fire the designer once and for all 😂 😂 😂
Part of me expected it yazi, not in that manner of course but somehow I did feel like a lose is coming. Some good performances thou especially if the ball is ours but our crosses were late and very poor.
