{"product_id":"manchester-city-2016-17-third-shirt-aguero","title":"Manchester City 2016\/17 Third Shirt Aguero (M-Mint)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Manchester City 2016\/17 third shirt stands out as one of Nike’s more adventurous designs for the club, using a predominantly orange base with a purple fade and horizontal lines across the front. The colour combination also referenced Manchester City’s history, with violet having previously appeared on the club’s away shirt in 1992 and again in 2007\/08 and 2014\/15. \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/footballshirtparadise.com\/collections\/nike\" title=\"Nike shirts\"\u003eNike\u003c\/a\u003e produced the shirt using its AeroSwift technology, while the design incorporated the new Manchester City crest introduced in 2015. The shirt carries style code 776901-817 and is offered here in size medium, with the condition graded mint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRather than serving as a regular alternative kit, the third shirt was specifically intended for cup competitions during the 2016\/17 campaign. \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/footballshirtparadise.com\/collections\/manchester-city\" title=\"Man City shirts\"\u003eManchester City\u003c\/a\u003e wore it in the League Cup, Champions League and FA Cup, with the club officially introducing the kit for its League Cup meeting with Swansea City. The season was the first under Pep Guardiola, following his arrival from Bayern Munich, and City finished third in the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/footballshirtparadise.com\/collections\/premier-league\" title=\"Premier League shirts\"\u003ePremier League\u003c\/a\u003e with 78 points. In Europe, they reached the Champions League round of 16 before Monaco eliminated them on away goals after a 6–6 aggregate score. Domestically, City also reached the FA Cup semi-finals, losing 2–1 to Arsenal after extra time, while their League Cup defence ended in the fourth round against Manchester United.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe shirt is closely tied to a transitional season in Manchester City’s modern history, with Guardiola beginning to establish his footballing style and players including Sergio Agüero, Kevin De Bruyne, David Silva, Leroy Sané and Yaya Touré forming the core of the squad. Its orange-and-violet colour scheme and use across European and domestic cup matches make the 2016\/17 third shirt a distinctive part of Nike’s Manchester City catalogue.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Nike","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53722759397712,"sku":null,"price":99.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0926\/4057\/5824\/files\/Manchester_City_2016_17_Third_Shirt_Aguero_776901-817_back.jpg?v=1790938196","url":"https:\/\/footballshirtparadise.com\/products\/manchester-city-2016-17-third-shirt-aguero","provider":"Football Shirt Paradise","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
