Leeds United chairman Andrea Radrizzani has hinted that the release of the club's new third kit is around the corner following last week's introduction of the one-off centenary kit.
The club released a plain, stripped down white kit on Thursday afternoon during their 100th birthday celebrations which was limited to 1,919 shirts and it sold out almost instantly.
With shirts appearing on eBay for several times the retail price of £149, Radrizzani confirmed that while Leeds United's centenary kit will not be re-released, another it on the way.
"That's only in 1919 pieces to keep it special but you have enough good quality shirts to buy this year ...something new coming up soon," he posted in reply to a fan.

Leeds have so far released their usual White home kit, plus the grey and pink away kit and a third shirt was hinted at by Angus Kinnear earlier this season.
"While the grey and pink kit has been an instant hit I know it has raised a few eyebrows in our centenary year," he wrote in the programme following the away kit release, before mention of four shirts this season.
"The simple rationale is that we don't want all of our 100-year celebrations to be retrospective. Traditionalists can rest assured that three of our four kits this season will be heritage-driven, but we wanted one kit to appeal to a new generation of Leeds supporters for our next century."
Last year saw Leeds release their yellow third kit in November.
