Adekunle Gold’s debut as the face of Manchester United’s new apparel astounded millions of fans worldwide.
Adekunle Gold, a multi-award-winning singer and performer, shot to social media fame when an advertisement for new clothing from Manchester United, a dominant English football team, used the singer as a model.
The recently announced lifestyle collection, which was inspired by the Red Devils’ third kit jersey, featured a stunning look on AG Baby. ‘LFSTLR crosses the barriers between football performance and streetwear culture,’ according to Adidas, who created the collection. The Man Utd Third jersey from this season is adapted for the lifestyle collection, keeping the general design concept but emphasizing wearability, comfort, and style.
Adekunle Gold also took to his social media platform to react to this announcement in a post that read, “Went from watching the games from viewing centres in Ikotun to being invited to watch at Old Trafford to actually working with and being celebrated by my favourite football club in the world. Wild! By all means, Dream! GGMU.”
