Manchester United players have been forced to wear kit that can be found in the club shop amid another blunder involving the Old Trafford club.<\/p>\n

The players have reportedly found the match socks too tight around the calves, with some players resorting to cutting holes in the socks. As a result, some have been wearing replica socks since the second game of the season, reports the Daily Mail.<\/p>\n

In another issue, goalkeeper Andre Onana has had problems with his jersey. After finding the match shirt too tight, he is said to have switched to a looser replica top. Onana reportedly made the change after United\u2019s 2-1 win at lowly Sheffield United last month.<\/p>\n

United renewed their kit sponsorship deal with sportswear giants Adidas only this summer. The deal, worth almost \u00a31billion, will net United a guaranteed \u00a390million per year over 10 seasons. Therefore, reports of problems with the kit are a major embarrassment to both United and the German manufacturer, which has now produced club gear for the last eight years.<\/p>\n

Announcing the deal, Red Devils CEO Richard Arnold said at the time: \u201cThe relationship between Manchester United and Adidas is one of the most iconic in world sport, forged through a shared commitment to style, flair and, most importantly, high performance. <\/p>\n
