New pictures have emerged of Chelsea's home goalkeeper shirt for next season.
The website Footy Headlines has images of what it claims to be the 2023/24 keeper strip which will be made by the American sports manufacturer Nike. Said pictures have been released without a sponsor because Chelsea's deal with the mobile phone network Three runs out at the end of the current season.
Footy Headlines describe the shirt as being 'stunning' and its main colours are anthracite and grey with interweaving patterns. The design will mirror other strips made by Nike but the colours are different, with a metallic design for the Nike 'swoosh' tick and Chelsea badge.

It is reported that the logos on the shirt will vary from each angle because of the material, while it is also claimed that the earliest the goalkeeper shirt will be released is in July. It remains to be seen which sponsor Chelsea pick up and how it will affect the look of their shirts for next season.
It was estimated by the sponsorship platform Turnstile back in April last year that whomever Chelsea pick to be their next shirt sponsor could pay them around $52.5million (£42.1million). Three currently pay around $50million (£40.1million) per year to adorn the front of Chelsea's shirts and have done so since the 2020-21 season.
"Mobile technology has revolutionised the way football clubs and supporters interact with each other which makes Chelsea FC and Three such natural partners," Chelsea's chief executive Guy Laurence said back in January 2020. "With Three, we have found a partner, who share our passion for innovation and we are delighted to have them on board and on our shirts."
As far as Chelsea's kit manufacturer is concerned, Nike are contracted to produce the club's matchday gear, training wear and leisure clothing.
