Nike Launch Manchester City Mash-Up Shirt

Manchester City join in on the Nike mash-up movement as the Swoosh celebrate their six-year long partnership with the club; a period that has seen City win six major trophies.

This run of success is recognised with the limited-edition Nike x Manchester City celebration jersey. The design pulls from nine of the period's iconic looks, including the 2017-18 centurion season home shirt worn by Kevin De Bruyne, Raheem Sterling and John Stones, in which the club broke the Premier League points tally record, and the third shirt from the 2013-14 domestic double winning campaign that was worn by midfield lynchpin Fernandinho.

Rising star and homegrown talent Phil Foden is one of the select few to have worn every single jersey produced within Nike’s six-year partnership with Manchester City. "My personal favorite is the home jersey from last season. I made my debut wearing that, so it means a lot me," says Foden. "It’s great because the fans will be able to point out the jerseys and relive the memories created in them."

The shirt will debut on pitch as a pre-match option this weekend in the Premier League away at Fulham, and will continue to be worn for the remaining domestic fixtures this season as the club chase that seventh major successful under Nike. The individually numbered (1 to 6,000) Nike x Manchester City celebration jerseys will be available from April 10.
