Manchester United have officially launched their pink away kit for the 2018-19 season - but fans will need to find £110 to match the look of their favourite stars.
The kit was revealed by the club at the end of August ahead of being worn against Burnley and the colour pink was selected in tribute to a local newspaper's former sports section.
It pays homage to The Football Pink newspaper, which was created by the Manchester Evening News and went out on Saturday afternoons until its closure in 2007.

Scott McTominay and Luke Shaw helped model the new away shirt for its official launch
It is a piece of history for United having never previously had an away kit in the colour pink.
One version of the adult shirt on the adidas website is called the 'authentic away jersey' and costs supporters £109.95.
Said to be 'identical' to the shirts worn by Paul Pogba, Jesse Lingard and Co, fans are being encouraged to look beyond the replica away shirt which retails at £64.95.

It proved a good luck charm for United as they beat Burnley 2-0 at Turf Moor on its first outing
Fans got the first sighting of the shirt back in July when pictures emerged from an adidas store in Taiwan.
They appeared to confirm that the upcoming away strip would be pink for the 2018-19 season - and now fans can purchase their own.
For those ardent supporters who want more than just the shirt, adult shorts cost £24.95 with the accompanying pink socks costing a further £16.95.
So for those wanting the 'authentic' away shirt with the shorts and socks, the total cost is an eye-watering £151.85.
The kit got a successful first outing with Jose Mourinho's side running out 2-0 winners against Burnley.
A brace from Belgian striker Romelu Lukaku proved United are pretty in pink already so far this season.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
