And now Man Utd and kit manufacturer Adidas are set to pay homage to them in the form of a new football kit.

According to Footy Headlines, a collaboration with The Stones Roses has engineered the creation of a brand new football kit.

However, it will not be what the Red Devils wear during games.

Instead, it will be a pre-match shirt used in 2024.

The kit sees the club badge combined with the background artwork from The Stones Roses’ iconic self-titled first album.

Taking to X, formerly known as Twitter, one fan said on the kit: “That is sexy.”

A second said: “Looks good.”

A third said: “Pretty cold Tbf.”

Another said: “I’ve gotta cop that.”

A fifth said: “That would have made a nice away or third shirt.”

While another said: “One for the collection I think, quite like this.”

A release date for the shirt is expected in early 2024, though a December 2023 release has not been ruled out.

Man Utd have used The Stone Roses single “This is the One” as their walkout music before every home game for the last 34 years.
