It's secret that Noel Gallagher is a huge Manchester City fan - and it has been confirmed there will be an Oasis influence in Man City's new third kit.
The 56-year-old is, of course, most well known for his role as guitarist and the main songwriter in Oasis and penned some of the greatest tunes and albums of all time.
Oasis broke up in 2009 after a big fallout between Noel and his brother Liam, and both have since embarked upon solo careers.
The older Gallagher brother formed Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds, and released four studio albums since 2011.

Both Noel and Liam's gigs tend to have a mixture of their own songs and Oasis tunes, with many speculating and hoping the duo could one day reform to get the old band back together.
The Gallagher brothers are among the most famous City fans on the planet, and their first two albums in particular with Oasis are acclaimed as two of the best of all time.
(What's The Story?) Morning Glory included hits like Don't Look Back In Anger, Wonderwall, and Champagne Supernova.
The band's debut album of Definitely Maybe came out in 1994 and is celebrating its 30th anniversary this year.
Songs such as Supersonic, Cigarettes & Alcohol, Live Forever and Rock 'n' Roll Star are among those included on the debut effort - and Gallagher has confirmed there is a Definitely Maybe influence on City's third strip for next season.
Speaking on The Friday Football Social on BBC 5 Live Sport, Gallagher said: "I can't say too much, but it's a Definitely Maybe-inspired third kit and it's far-out.
"I've seen it, I designed it. It's got a massive picture of my head on all the tops!
"No, it's great. It's been a real honour to do it for the 30th anniversary. It's amazing."
Any fan would love the chance to help design the next kit of their club, so it must have been great for Gallagher to have been involved in it.
He will be hoping City can pick up three points this weekend when they travel to Anfield on Sunday to take on Premier League title rivals Liverpool.
