AC Milan home kit 2020-21 launched 

The AC Milan home kit 2020-21 features black and red stripes, which is duly combined with white coloured sponsor logos. The new home kit gains inspiration from Puma's ongoing 'Crafted from Culture' theme. The theme began with the sensational Italian Renaissance shirt. The home kit features a subtle pattern inspired by the flooring of the Duomo within the stripes. 

The AC Milan home kit 2020-21 was earlier slated to be released in May when the season was earlier supposed to draw to a close. However, it was postponed until July amid the coronavirus crisis that rocked the world; Italy in particular. It is reported that the team might unveil the jersey in any of the final two games of the competition, either against Sampdoria or Cagliari. It is very likely that the team might wear the new home kit in the home game against Cagliari.
