On Tuesday, Manchester United officially unveiled their new season's home jersey, whose unique design is embellished with a red rose motif, with model Rashford holding a red rose like a romantic love interest in a play. However, just then, a group of fan groups launched a protest against the club's owners, the Glasha family, refusing to buy the new jersey.
The jersey features a rosy red color, incorporating the mystical texture of a red rose, and a classic black V-neck collar. Officially, the design claims to be inspired by a bridge from the Industrial Revolution, but in fact, the jersey was unveiled a few days ago at one of the rapper's performances, stealing the show.
United have invited a number of players including Rashford, Kasmiru, Warani, Lyszindo Martinez and rumored transfer target Chaton Sinzu, as well as members of the women's football team, to model the new kits, with Rashford holding a red rose, which is a perfect fit for the theme of the kits.
However, some loyal United fans were not happy about this and chose to protest on the day of the shirt's release. A large group of fans gathered outside the official flagship store at the Old Trafford Stadium with a banner reading "Grassa out" and blocked the entrance to the store, forcing it to close temporarily. Fan groups called for a boycott of the new jerseys, arguing that purchasing them would support the continuation of the Glasha family's power.
