Liverpool have revealed their new home kit for the 2019/20 season.

The Reds made the announcement on Thursday morning via their social media channels, with most fans very impressed.

The kit pays homage to the club’s most successful manager Bob Paisley OBE, and is a special tribute to the man who would have turned 100 this year.

According to Liverpool’s official store, ‘each jersey has been inscribed with Paisley’s iconic signature on the inside of the neck, and also features an official swing tag dedicated to the legend’.

The shirt includes white pinstripes and is once again provided by New Balance.

“I’m really looking forward to wearing it every time we play at our beloved home of Anfield, as a symbol of the pride and passion you have when you’re a Red.

“It’s also a really fitting tribute to one of our greatest managers, Bob Paisley, and is a fantastic way to remember all his success.”
