Richard Keys reacts to what Leeds United have done already this season
Richard Keys has reminisced on old Leeds United kits after being sent the 2024/25 away kit on Thursday 15 August.
The beIN Sports host picked out the West Ham home kit as his favourite of the year so far, calling it an “absolute classic” at the London Stadium.
Keys went on to pick out his favourite Leeds effort of the past, going back to the days when the kit was all white, with sock tags for the players’ numbers.
Replying to a fan, Keys wrote: “White. Only white. Pure white – with sock tag numbers.”
Leeds United and Adidas break records
No matter what the outside opinion is, the Whites and the German giants will be delighted with the sale numbers of their latest effort at Elland Road.
With a record-breaking Red Bull deal signed earlier in the summer [LWOS], fans have lapped up the new sponsor on the shirt, even despite initial worries.
Leeds chiefs were said to have moved heaven and earth to get the all-yellow strip commissioned, with it paying off as record sales were noted in the opening 24 hours [Leeds Live].
Keys may not be a massive fan, but those who count in the stands, love it.
With West Brom next up in the Championship at The Hawthorns on Saturday 17 August, the yellow kit should get its first official use, hopefully bringing better luck.
It’s been nothing short of a disaster week at Elland Road, somehow drawing 3-3 against Pompey before being smashed by Middlesbrough 3-0 in the EFL Cup.
Let’s hope for more luck on the road.
