2025/26 Chelsea home shirt leaked | OneFootball

Chelsea's 2025/26 home shirt is set to feature a more typical version of the club's badge than seen in recent seasons, according to the latest leaks of the rumoured design.

Made by Nike, it will mark a return to the club's usual badge after the iridescent versions used on home shirts this season and last, and feature an urban all-over graphic intended to invoke imagery of the grit of the city of London and its residents.

The new home shirt, revealed by Footy Headlines, is to include red and white detailing on the side panels, as well as inside the neckline of a white V.

Red has often featured on blue Chelsea home kits over the years, including this season, 2019/20, 2018/19, 2015/16 and 2010/11. Red trim was also a major part of some iconic Chelsea shirt designs from the 1980s and 1990s, with red featured on various iterations of the club crest for decades.

Fans have already caught a glimpse of next season's white away kit, with influence for the design coming from a shirt worn in the 1970s that featured a thick central green and red stripe. That has been given a modern twist for 2025, reimagined as six pinstripes – three red, three green.

Chelsea shirts in 2024/25 have not featured a front sponsor, with the club yet to strike an agreement with a new partner.

While supporters will no doubt feel that jerseys have a cleaner look without a sponsor logo emblazoned on it, the Blues are missing out on lucrative revenue. For context, Manchester United and Manchester City earn as much as £60m from their front-of-shirt sponsorship deal this season.
