Liverpool unveil new 2024-25 home kit as they prepare for life under Slot

Liverpool have unveiled their new 2024-25 kit with a hint of nostalgia after using a legendary former jersey as inspiration.

The Reds are preparing for a new season without manager Jurgen Klopp after the German announced he would leave his post at Anfield following nine years in the job - with Feyenoord boss Arne Slot set to replace him at the helm.

And now the club have given a hint of what life at the club will look after the 56-year-old has departed after revealing their new strip for next season - which has been inspired by their famous 1984 team.

That iconic side wore a similar design when they won the treble of the First Division, the League Cup and the European Cup under manager Joe Fagan with a team widely regarded as the greatest in their history.

The new shirt marks a significant change from the current kit, which is predominantly plain red with a white collar and sleeve, with this version incorporating a pinstripe down the body and two white straps with a red strip through the middle acting as the collar.

There is also a horizontal line running along the middle of the pinstripe pattern - giving the design an edgier look.

Last season, the team's logos were all white, but for the next campaign things have been switched up slightly. Now the manufacturer logo for Nike and the club crest have been put in gold.

However, Liverpool's main sponsor Standard Chartered remains in white - as does their sleeve sponsor Expedia.

Club captain Virgil van Dijk said he was happy about the new design and hailed the 'retro' feel of the shirt.

He heaped praise on the famous 1984 side and hoped it would allow the current team to 'build on history'.

'I’m a big fan of our new kit for next season and love the fact we’re bringing the retro vibe back. We are a club build on history and the 1984 team was one of our most successful ever. I’m sure our fans will appreciate the nod to those club legends.'
