adidas and Leeds United have unveiled the club's new away jersey for the 2026/27 season, with Bafana Bafana legend Lucas Radebe playing a huge role in the launch campaign. Check it out!

Leeds United's striking new away strip is predominantly yellow, a colour closely associated with some of the club's most iconic away kits over the years.

The design is complemented by navy and white details, paying homage to the club's rich heritage while giving supporters a fresh look ahead of the new Premier League season.

For South African fans, however, the biggest talking point was the inclusion of SA football icon Radebe, a legendary figure at both Leeds United and Bafana Bafana.

The former South Africa captain remains one of the most revered players in Leeds history after spending 11 years at Elland Road between 1994 and 2005.

During his time in England, the Kaizer Chiefs legend captained the club and became a fan favourite, helping Leeds establish themselves as one of the top teams in the country during the late 1990s and early 2000s.

Radebe continues to serve as a Leeds United ambassador and remains closely connected to the club, making his appearance in the latest kit launch a fitting tribute to his lasting legacy.
