Adidas and Liverpool are reportedly set to pair up once again next season as the German outfit swept in with a deal after four years of Nike rule. Adidas has created some of the most iconic kits in the club's history from the legendary Crowns Paints kits in the 80s to the some of the infamous Carlsberg kits of the 90s and 00s.

Now the manufacturer is looking to produce another kit for the ages, channelling its former glory days in a late-80s / early-90s-inspired kit that wouldn't have looked out of place 35 years ago. According to Footy Headlines, LFC's third kit will not only bring back the classic 'sea green' of the 90s but also a retro-inspired badge.

The badge still has the Liver Bird at the front and centre but brings back the simple shield around - matching the 1987 kit worn by John Barnes, Kenny Dalglish and Peter Beardsley.

The leaked third strip has subtle toned stripes, the classic three stripes on each arm as well as a white trim. The kit will also feature the Adidas originals trefoil logo, rather than the classic sporting three stripes logo - something reserved for just a few of the biggest teams in Europe. Currently, the originals logo only features on Arsenal's third and a Real Madrid, Juventus, Bayern Munich and Man United alternate strip.
