On Wednesday the west London club unveiled a new sky blue third jersey, which includes NikeConnect.
What is NikeConnect? Chelsea explain.
“The shirt is the first ever football kit to use Nike Connect technology. Download the N+ App and tap in on the shirt’s tag to activate your unique fan experience – featuring exclusive content, access to athletes, Chelsea moments, x-category activations, competitions and the chance to help create an upcoming special-edition Chelsea FC fan jersey.”
Eden Hazard can be seen sporting the new kit in the photos below, as fans having a quick flick through social media this morning may have been a little surprised to see Hazard in sky blue and though he had signed for Manchester City.
Don’t worry, Chelsea fans. He’s still at Stamford Bridge.
Tapping into my new third kit with NikeConnect. 🤳 Can’t wait to see what you guys do creating a fan jersey. ⚪🔵⚽
