Chelsea Reverts To Old Kit

Update: In surprising news, Chelsea FC will revert to their 2020-21 home kit for the crucial Premier League match against Leicester City this night. The reasons are not known, but the league would have allowed them to wear the new kit - Arsenal will debut their brand-new 21-22 Adidas away kit.

As announced when they released their new Nike 2021-22 home kit on May 13, 2021, Chelsea FC debuted their new shirt in the FA Cup final against Leicester City today.

Chelsea did not design a new kit font for the 2021-2022 season. The current Chelsea jersey typeface was released in 2019 - in the Premier League, Chelsea will of course wear the Premier League font and badges.
