Fake: Neither of These Shirts are the Liverpool 23-24 Kit
There are photos of a couple of supposed Liverpool 23-24 away kits doing the rounds online, but they do not reflect the real design.
Fake Liverpool 23-24 Away Kits
According to @FumlerRawk, the two Liverpool shirts shown above have been touted as the real deal by several Liverpool fan accounts on social media. Once again, it is a case of concept designs being used by counterfeiters to produce fake kits. The first information on the colours of Liverpool's 23-24 away kit was revealed by @FumlerRawk last summer, with something of an insight then gleaned from some leaked training wear a few months ago.
The design used to create the above shirt can be traced back to @AggerR4ul's sketched prediction based on that info, which was then made into a render by @ismet1m00, and @Rode1kit then recreated the kit by modifying the graphics in FIFA. We at Footy Headlines followed all of these developments, always noting the sources and stating that they were based on predictions, rather than being leaks of the final design.

The origin of the of the second fake Liverpool shirt design (below) is not so clear, but it seems to have first appeared on templatesfc.com, a site that sells digital kit templates for fans and designers. They also post fantasy designs. The physical shirt in the photo is immediately identifiable as a fake by the fact that it does not fit the Nike template for 23-24. Our sources have confirmed that it is definitely not the real design for next season.
Concept designer currently unknown.
Evidently, these predictions/concepts were picked up by counterfeiters and put into production, and the photos of these physical shirts were convincing enough to make some people believe that they were real. Although the colours for next season's away shirt are known to be green and white and expected to feature some sort of graphic pattern, the specifics of the pattern are yet to be revealed.
Would you have liked to see Liverpool wear a kit that looks like either of these two designs? Comment below.
