Some Tottenham Hotspur fans have taken to Twitter to share their reaction to seeing next season’s home shirt in what appears to be a leak of the design.
Eagle-eyed supporters noticed an image of Spurs’ brand new home shirt had appeared on Nike’s website (and was later removed) before the design has even been officially announced by the Champions League finalists.
Nike themselves have leaked our 20/21 home kit on their website. This almost happens every year doesn't it? pic.twitter.com/3oLsdo1ryq

A navy zig zag stripe runs down both sides of the shirt whilst the navy collar features yellow trim but is predominantly white with a subtle all over pattern.
The upper arm area near the shoulders sport a navy panel feature while a navy Nike logo is located on the right breast whilst the famous cockerel is placed on the left breast.
The design has not been overly well received by Spurs supporters on Twitter, but fans will have to stomach Nike’s designs until 2033 following a 15-year deal which is worth £15million a year to Daniel Levy’s bottom line (The Sun).
Not great. Too busy. White, grey, blue, yellow and red? ??♂️

Spurs will be furious, they have been trying to set a date with Nike for the kit launch and it’s been them causing the delay. I was talking to head of retail a month ago.
