Manchester United sealed their long-awaited return to the Champions League last night with a resounding win over Club Brugge.
Louis van Gaal's side will learn their fate in this evening's draw for Europe's elite football competition and have unveiled their third kit for the season to mark the occasion.
United agreed a new 10 year deal with adidas this summer worth more than £750m.
The German sportswear giant also officially unveiled third kits for Real Madrid, FC Bayern Munich Juventus and AC Milan, while Chelsea's third kit was also included despite being launched last week.

The new United kit, which Adidas say has been 'designed with neon red accents as a pointer to the numerous glorious European nights at Old Trafford' is likely to make its debut when United play Southampton on September 20.
“We started the design process for these kits with trend research and fashion fair visits in Summer 2013. These were followed by trips to the different clubs and cities, where input was gathered from the clubs and fans,” said Florian Baeuerlein, Senior Product Manager, adidas Football. “Each development has been made in partnership with the clubs, where feedback has been taken on board and concepts adjusted to create kits that are highly appreciated by the clubs, their fans and their players.”
