A picture of Tom Rogic in what some are claiming to be Adidas’s new Celtic home kit for the 2020/21 season has been circulating online.
The photo of the Australian international posing in the shirt has got a lot of supporters talking on Twitter, with many comparing it to the jersey worn in the 1986/87 campaign:
Like an old classic. ??????

Classic look. Hope it brings more success than the old one though

Very nice, but No three strips?

Other fans think the image has been photoshopped:

We are getting close to the time of year when images emerge of the new shirts but with football having been postponed due to the ongoing health crisis, new kit release dates have probably been pushed back.
Adidas are likely waiting to see whether the Scottish Premiership season is declared over by the SPFL before making any plans to launch their 2020/21 shirts.
If the image does turn out to be genuine, though, it appears the shirt design will go down very well with a majority of Celtic supporters.
