Real Madrid are set to ditch boring grey as leaked images of vivid away kit emerge

Be gone, you pale imitation of a pyjama top!

Real Madrid's grey away strip last season was not exactly a popular one among fans and the club aren't hanging around with switching things up. https://twitter.com/SportsJOEdotie/status/624564494182838272 The newly-crowned Champions League winners are planning a throwback to the 1980s with their away strip for the 2016/17 season. Reliable football strip website FootyHeadlines have revealed that Real are returning to the glory days of their 1986 Uefa Cup victory with a bright all-purple away strip. Purple is also expected to play a part in the home kit with violet adidas stripes and sleeve-trim incorporated into the jersey. Los Blancos are just a cracking third kit away from the trifecta! Now, we know there are a LOT of football kit leaks at this time of year, but despite seemingly not doing anything else all year long, FootyHeadlines actually have quite a good history in leaking official strips before anyone else gets them.
