Some of Europe’s biggest clubs, including Chelsea, Manchester City and AC Milan, have already revealed their 2025/26 kits.
Others have chosen to wait – but FIFA may have accidentally jumped the gun in a new promotional image for the upcoming Club World Cup.
The visual, released as part of FIFA’s early hype for the tournament, shows players from top clubs including Bayern Munich, Atlético Madrid, Inter, Borussia Dortmund, Benfica, Porto, Juventus, Paris Saint-Germain, Real Madrid, Manchester City, and Chelsea, all wearing stylised racing suits as they gather around a car displaying the new Club World Cup trophy.
Although the suits aren’t direct replicas of next season’s kits, they feature clear visual similarities. For clubs that have already released their new designs, the suits match them almost exactly – strongly suggesting the rest are close representations of what’s to come.
Manchester City’s suit, worn by Josko Gvardiol, features a white sash across the front, which mirrors their confirmed 2025/26 home kit. Juventus’ version, worn by Kenan Yildiz, includes two bold black stripes—just like the club’s newly unveiled shirt.
Borussia Dortmund’s design displays a dominant yellow base with black graphical detailing across the shoulders and sleeves. This closely matches previously leaked images of their home kit for next season. Inter Milan’s suit, worn by Nicolò Barella, is composed of thin black and blue stripes that change shape toward the shoulders, a design that also aligns with known leaks.
Bayern Munich’s kit design is harder to confirm, as Michael Olise is shown sitting sideways in the image. However, the visible deep white V-neck is consistent with another leaked version of the club’s 2025/26 shirt.
The only real discrepancy appears to be PSG. The suit worn by Désiré Doué doesn’t match previous leaks of the French club’s upcoming home kit, raising the possibility that the final design is either still in development – or that this particular suit was a placeholder.
Intentional or not, FIFA’s graphic may have provided the clearest look yet at several unreleased kits ahead of the new season.
