Manchester United could be playing in a black and orange third kit next season if a leaked image on the internet is to be believed.

The Red Devils are switching kit manufacturer from next term which will see them ditch Nike for Adidas. The German sportswear brand will be keen to get noticed after paying £750m for a 10-year deal and they should have little trouble doing so judging by the glow-in-the-dark trim used on the leaked strip.

The kit will draw comparisons with the away strip worn by Chelsea during the 2010/11 season. The west London club are also sponsored by Adidas. The last time Manchester United wore a predominantly black third kit also came in the 2010/11 season.
