After concerns Matheus Franca had done so, it seems the new Crystal Palace away kit has now been leaked in the background of a video.

Crystal Palace might’ve just accidentally leaked the club’s 2024/25 away shirt in the background of Daichi Kamada’s first interview at the club.

This comes after the Japan international has been in training and seems firmly part of Oliver Glasner’s squad already having been part of preseason for weeks.

The Eagles’ home shirt was unveiled recently too and sees the Eagles don a classic 50/50 split between red and blue.

But now weeks after there was a question over if Matheus Franca had leaked the new away kit, it seems the club themselves have inadvertently done so themselves.

Crystal Palace may have leaked the Palace away kit for 2024/25

If the club has accidentally leaked the new away kit, it seems a very sloppy mistake which could have been avoided.

The moment in question is at 0:19 in Palace’s ‘The First Interview’ video for Kamada with two yellow shirts seen in the background.

The shirts were there as Kamada was being pictured in the new home kit, which makes sense and likely suggests he was also photographed in the two yellow shirts behind the photographer.

Of the two yellow shirts, the one on the left appears to be a vintage Palace jersey, however, the one on the right of the two looks to be new and could be a kit for the 24/25 season.

This is the case as it looks like the kit has a NET88 sponsor on the front of it, which is a brand new sponsor for this coming season.

This is obviously far from confirmed, but seems to be the likely new away kit which we could see Kamada in very soon.

Where will Daichi Kamada be playing for Crystal Palace?

With Kamada gearing up for the new season and becoming accustomed to life at Copers Cope, there remains the question of where Glasner sees him fitting in.

As of right now, Kamada probably slots in where Michael Olise would have previously been, but this doesn’t appear to be a long-term fit considering the links with Antonio Nusa and Jaden Philogene.

Kamada could also be set to partner Adam Wharton in midfield in a role where he is given slightly more license to go forward.

However, the midfield is stacked and it’d be a fight for minutes there this coming season.

Glasner must have a plan though, as he wouldn’t have signed Kamada not to play him considering the pair are so close.
