The bee is a familiar symbol around the streets of Manchester, described by City as demonstrating the “graft, unity and resilience” that “define” Manchester.
The kit aims to “channel the noise of the away end and the identity of the streets back home”. “Doesn’t matter if you were born in Manchester or just buzzin’ to be here,” City add. “The bee says you’re one of us.”

“I’ve never seen something like this floating pitch and I’m a little jealous of everyone who’s getting to play on it right now,” Foden said at the launch.
“The kit is something special, so I’m looking forward to wearing it this season as we do our best to make you all proud.”

Puma’s Dominique Gathier said the design aimed to give City’s players the best possible playing materials while “carrying real meaning for the city and its fans”.
“We wanted every detail to reflect the identity of this club and the culture around it,” explained Gathier.
“It’s a shirt built for the pitch but made to be worn with pride well beyond it.”

“We’ve worked closely with [City and Puma] to ensure its use on the [kit] is authentic and respectful of its significance.
“Seeing the bee showcased to a global audience through one of Manchester’s most recognised institutions is a fitting celebration of our city, our people and the spirit that continues to define Manchester today.”
