Some Liverpool fans have been discussing a concept kit design created and shared on Twitter by @LFC92. It’s been labelled by its creator as a ‘UEFA Champions League change kit’ and the proposed white shirt has sparked much debate on the social media platform.
Here is what some of the fans have had to say.
That’s the best concept I’ve seen so far. Omds?

What do we think?
It’s clear from the above responses that these supporters are impressed by the design and would be happy to see their heroes wearing that shirt in Europe’s premier competition. The Reds have signed a lucrative kit deal with the American sportswear giants Nike, which could earn the club as much as £100m per season (as per the Evening Standard).
It’s understood that the base value of the deal is somewhat lower than that agreed with Liverpool’s current kit provider New Balance, but Nike’s offer of 20% royalties on sales of merchandise and their superior global reach mean the club could be set to pocket significantly more.
