Tottenham Hotspur fans have been reacting on social media after an eagle-eyes supporter spotted that two jerseys were spotted on sale in Melbourne, Australia.
The fan noticed that both the home and away Spurs shirts were hanging up within a sports store in the city and posted photos of his findings on Twitter.

The home shirt is simplistic in design and features ‘To Dare is to Do’ on the inside of the back of the neck of the shirt, while the navy blue design contains the Latin equivalent ‘Audere est Facere’.
There has certainly been an overwhelming negative reaction to the designs from Nike, who are known for their ‘template’ style which sees many clubs wearing identical kits.
Neither kit features the iridescent Spurs and Nike badge, which could mean that the club’s third choice strip will include the feature which first appeared on the PSG kit in 2016/17.
Here’s how some Spurs fans reacted.
Same old year after year

home is good because it’s safe, away is horrible

Away one so dull. What’s wrong with good old yellow or sky blue. Hate all these dark boring kits.

Yeah I’m not happy with any of the leaked kits, was hoping I could get a home jersey…sadly red seems to be a colour we can’t shake. Give me an Aurasma shirt any day #lilywhite

Terrible

Indeed the away shirt looks awful. The double purple with the iridescent badge concept shirt was far better.
