EA Sports have announced that four of the biggest football clubs in the world will be unveiling brand new kits that exist solely in digital form.
A partnership with Adidas has seen Manchester United, Juventus, Bayern Munich and Real Madrid all reveal a raft of new fourth kits — exclusive strips that will only be accessible in-game on FIFA 18 Ultimate Team (FUT).
Four huge clubs, four exclusive digital fourth kits.

The digital kits will also be automatically available to FIFA 18 players who have selected one of the four aforementioned clubs as their favourite team on their active gamer profile.
The kits will only be available in FUT so unfortunately fans will not be able to venture out and buy real-world replicas from the club shop.
Shame, because we really quite like that Juve jersey.
