Everton’s leaked new jersey is retro but won’t go down well with fans

They have a new shirt sponsor

Everton fans might be underwhelmed by this jersey compared to previous efforts in recent years.

The club’s jersey for next season appears to have been leaked, and it features a new shirt sponsor.

Chang Beer have sponsored Everton’s jersey since 2004, but they will be replaced by SportPesa. According to the Liverpool Echo, the African betting company have agreed a five year deal to be the main sponsor of the Merseyside club.

Footy Headlines appear to have got their hands on an image of Everton’s new jersey, and it is a bit minimalist.

We should probably wait until the jersey is officially confirmed before passing a final judgement on it, but the jersey appears to be a downgrade on the current Everton home strip.

However, if Evertonians don’t like the team’s new jersey, another one will be along this time next year.
