This is the new Stoke kit 24/25, Stoke City FC’s new home shirt for the upcoming EFL Championship season. Made by Macron, the new Stoke home jersey for 2024/25 was officially unveiled on May 30, 2024.

Southampton will be wearing their black third kit when they square off against Leeds United in the Championship Playoff Final at Wembley this weekend. The winner will join Leicester and Ipswich in the Premier League next season. Saints beat West Brom 3-1 at St.Mary’s while Leeds hammered Norwich 4-0 at Elland Road in the second leg of their respective semifinal ties after both first legs had ended in a goalless stalemate.

Burnley have today (May 8, 2024) announced that Castore will be their kit partners beginning next season (2024/25). The Clarets are currently second from bottom in the Premier League at the time of writing and will most probably play in the Championship in 24/25.
The new deal is an interesting one because Burnley’s current contract with Umbro is till 2026 (started in 2019, four year extension inked in 2022). Castore and Umbro however struck a sub-licensing agreement earlier this year, which means we could see the former work with more double-diamond brands next season.
The shirt below, worn by the club in 23/24, could therefore be Burnley’s last Umbro made home one.
