Manchester City Unveil 2022/23 Training Kit With New Sponsor OKX

Manchester City have unveiled their new training kit for the 2022/23 season, with cryptocurrency OKX becoming the official partner.

OKX, a leading crypto trading app which has more than 20 million customers globally, became City’s official cryptocurrency exchange partner back in March and now their link has been stepped up a notch.

In sky blue, the OKX logo will be front and centre of the black training shirt for City's men's and women's teams and sees new signing Erling Haaland in the promotional pictures alongside Jack Grealish, John Stones and Joao Cancelo.

Pep Guardiola's star-studded squad debuted the strip as they returned to pre-season training at the City Football Academy.

Commenting on the news, Roel de Vries, Group Chief Operating Officer, City Football Group, said: “We are pleased to expand our relationship with OKX today, as they become the Official Training Kit Partner of Manchester City. OKX and Man City are aligned on values such as innovation and success and for both parties, everything starts with training and education. "Since the initial partnership began in March 2022, we have worked together to ‘supercharge the fan experience’ through a number of exciting content activations ahead of high profile fixtures during the culmination of the 2021/22 season and we look forward to continuing to develop these opportunities over the coming year.”

As part of the exciting training kit announcement, OKX have given fans the chance to a season ticket in their hospitality box at the Etihad Stadium.

Together, Akse P19 and Global Street Art Agency have created murals of Haaland, Grealish, Stones and Cancelo that will stationed at four different locations across Manchester.

Each mural will contain a QR code that can be scanned to give fans the possibility of winning that golden ticket of a prize.

OKX have also been announced as City's presenting partner for their 2022 Premier League trophy tour after they secured a fourth title in five years.
