The Etihad Airways sponsor sits centrally in white, consistent with their long-running commercial partnership. Sky blue shorts and socks complete the full matchday look that every DLS player building a Man City squad wants to see on their players.
The sky blue home kit is Manchester City's most searched DLS asset by a significant margin. It's the kit associated with six Premier League titles in eleven seasons, the 2022/23 Treble, Haaland's record-breaking goal seasons, and Guardiola's most dominant tactical displays.

Manchester City Away Kit DLS 2026/27
Manchester City's away kit for 2026/27 moves away from the sky blue identity into a dark navy design with sky blue Puma branding and badge detailing. The navy base creates a strong visual contrast with the home kit, which is exactly what the away kit needs to achieve in both real football and DLS, when color clashes trigger the away kit selection, you want a shirt that looks sharp and deliberate rather than a compromise. The 2026/27 away design features subtle geometric patterning in a slightly lighter navy, giving the shirt depth without disrupting the clean silhouette. Navy shorts and socks complete the ensemble.

Manchester City Third Kit DLS 2026/27
Manchester City's third kit for 2026/27 is where Puma has been most creative with the design. The 2026/27 third features a deep maroon base, a color that references Manchester City's earliest years before sky blue became the club's defining identity, with gold Puma branding and a gold and grey badge. The maroon and gold combination gives the shirt a regal quality that plays well against the club's increasing status in global football. Monochrome Puma detailing on the sleeves keeps the overall look refined rather than busy. This is the most visually distinctive of the three Puma designs and the one generating the highest third-kit search traffic for Man City in DLS this season.

Manchester City Fourth Kit DLS 2026/27 Puma Special
Manchester City are one of a small number of Premier League clubs that regularly release a fourth kit alongside their standard three. The Puma fourth kit for 2026/27 uses a pale yellow base, a color that references Manchester City's occasional use of yellow in the 1960s and 1970s, specifically their 1969 FA Cup final appearance. Navy and teal Puma branding contrast sharply against the yellow base, and the dot-pattern detailing on the left chest area around the badge gives the shirt a distinctive texture. For DLS players building a full Manchester City kit collection, the fourth kit is the rarest and most collectible of the set.

Manchester City logo history — from 1894 to the 2026 crest
The Manchester City badge has one of the most layered histories in English football — a crest that has evolved alongside the city itself, drawing from Manchester's industrial heritage, its coat of arms, and its football identity. Understanding that history explains why the current badge looks the way it does and why certain elements matter to long-term supporters.
The club was officially formed as Manchester City FC in 1894, having previously operated as Ardwick AFC. The earliest badges were simple adaptations of the Manchester City Council coat of arms, a ship representing the Manchester Ship Canal, which opened in 1894 and transformed the city into an inland port, and a globe representing Manchester's global trade ambitions.
Manchester City adopted a new badge design featuring a Prussian eagle, a bold, aggressive heraldic symbol that replaced the earlier coat-of-arms style crest. This design coincided with one of the club's most successful periods, when they won the First Division title in 1968, the FA Cup in 1969, and the European Cup Winners' Cup in 1970. The eagle badge is strongly associated with this golden era.
City moved to a circular badge design that brought together multiple elements: the eagle from the previous crest, a ship in the lower half referencing the Manchester Ship Canal, a golden star, and three wavy lines representing the three rivers that flow through Manchester, the Irwell, the Medlock, and the Irk. This circular design became the foundation for all subsequent versions.
As City emerged from a difficult period in the lower divisions, a redesigned badge was introduced. The circular format was retained but the elements were cleaned up, the eagle was given a sharper, more heraldic treatment, and the overall proportions were adjusted for better use on merchandise and broadcast graphics. This version accompanied City's return to the top flight.
Manchester City introduced a significantly redesigned badge in 2016, coinciding with the Pep Guardiola era. The new design simplified the circular crest considerably, removing the ship from the lower half and replacing the more complex heraldic elements with a cleaner composition centered on the eagle and the three wavy lines. The sky blue ring around the badge was made bolder and more consistent. This is the badge used in DLS 2026/27.
The current Manchester City logo for DLS 2026/27 uses the 2016-era crest at 512x512 PNG resolution with a transparent background. The sky blue ring, the eagle, the three rivers, and the golden star sit cleanly against any kit color without a background box. The dark background variant above is specifically optimized for use against the dark navy away kit.
What does the Manchester City badge symbolize?
Every element of the Manchester City crest connects to the city's identity. The eagle is Manchester's heraldic symbol, appearing on the city's coat of arms for centuries, it represents strength, vision, and ambition. The three wavy lines represent the three rivers of Manchester: the Irwell, the Medlock, and the Irk, a direct geographic reference that grounds the badge in the physical city. The golden star represents the club's excellence and the championships won across their history. The sky blue ring is the most immediately recognizable element and the one that ties the badge to the kit — the specific shade of blue that has defined Manchester City since the early twentieth century.
Manchester City kit history — sky blue, the Puma era, and the Treble shirts
Manchester City's sky blue home kit is one of the most recognizable uniforms in English football, but the shade wasn't always this consistent. In the club's earliest years, Manchester City wore various shades of blue and even red, before settling on sky blue as their permanent identity in the early twentieth century. The specific Pantone shade, often described as a bright, almost powder blue that sits lighter than most football blues, became standardized across all commercial use in the modern era and is one of the most distinctive color identities in the Premier League.
The away kit has been far more experimental. Manchester City have used maroon, yellow, black, orange, and navy as away colors across their history, each generation of supporters associates a different away kit era with the teams they watched. The iconic navy and yellow away kit of 1998/99, specifically the design that was inspired by their 1969 FA Cup final appearance, remains one of the most nostalgic Man City designs for DLS players who prefer classic kit variants.
Why Puma and not Nike or Adidas?
Manchester City switched their kit manufacturer from Nike to Puma in 2019 as part of a long-term commercial partnership worth over £650 million — one of the largest kit deals in football history at the time. For DLS players who notice that Man City's kit branding looks different from clubs like Real Madrid (Adidas) or PSG (Nike), this is the reason. Puma's design language tends toward cleaner shapes and bolder color contrasts, which suits the sky blue identity well. The Puma Jumpcat logo on Man City shirts is now as associated with the club as any other visual element.
The 2022/23 Treble season kits — still the most downloaded
Manchester City's most-downloaded DLS kit set is not the current 2026/27 designs, it's the 2022/23 season kits, worn during the historic Treble-winning campaign where City claimed the Premier League, FA Cup, and UEFA Champions League in the same season for the first time in the club's history. The sky blue home kit from that season, the specific Puma design that Haaland wore when he scored his 52 Premier League goals in a single season, remains heavily searched in DLS years after that campaign ended. The 2022/23 kits are available in our classic kits section for DLS players who want that specific design.

Manchester City in DLS 2026/27 — building Guardiola's squad
Why Man City dominates DLS searches: Erling Haaland joined Manchester City in 2022 and immediately became the highest-rated striker in Dream League Soccer. His arrival single-handedly drove Man City's DLS kit and logo search volume to its highest point ever, players building squads around the Norwegian striker needed the sky blue kit to complete the setup.
The 2026/27 Manchester City squad under Pep Guardiola has evolved significantly from the Treble-era team. Kevin De Bruyne's influence has reduced as the Belgian has entered the final phase of his career, and City have invested heavily in the next generation of midfield talent to maintain the positional play that defines Guardiola's system. Erling Haaland remains the focal point of the attack, still one of the two or three highest-rated strikers in Dream League Soccer, and the full-back positions continue to function as auxiliary midfielders in the way that makes City's system so difficult to replicate and so fascinating to build in DLS.
For DLS players, building Manchester City means understanding that the squad's strength is spread more evenly than clubs like Real Madrid or PSG. Rather than three or four undeniable superstars surrounded by average teammates, City have twelve to fifteen players rated at a level that makes rotation genuinely viable. This translates well into DLS tournament play, where managing a long cup run requires depth across all positions.
Key Manchester City players in DLS 2026/27
Erling Haaland — Still the highest-rated striker in the Premier League section of DLS. His pace, finishing, and physical strength ratings are all at elite level, and he's the reason most DLS players choose Man City as their primary squad. Building your attack around him in a 4-3-3 mirrors how Guardiola uses him in real life.
Phil Foden — The most technically gifted English player in DLS, with dribbling and passing ratings that make him the most versatile attacking option in the squad. Foden can play as the advanced midfielder, left winger, or central forward in DLS, and his ratings reflect that flexibility.
Rúben Dias — Consistently one of the top-rated center-backs in the Premier League section of DLS. His positioning and defending ratings make him essential for players who want to build a defensively solid City squad rather than relying purely on attacking output.
Ederson — The highest-rated goalkeeper in the Premier League in DLS 2026/27. His sweeper-keeper ability, which Guardiola uses to essentially play him as an eleventh outfielder in real life, translates into passing and distribution ratings that are significantly higher than any other goalkeeper in the game.

Manchester City DLS logo and kit size requirements
Dream League Soccer requires the Manchester City logo and all kit images to be exactly 512x512 pixels in PNG format. This applies to every variant on this page, the badge, home kit, away kit, third kit, fourth kit, and all goalkeeper versions. The game engine scales images consistently across every screen where they appear: the team menu, the player model on the pitch, the match HUD, and the kit selection screen. A fixed 512x512 PNG gives the engine enough resolution to render sharply on modern high-resolution phone screens while remaining small enough to load without delay on slower mobile connections.
The transparent background on the Manchester City logo is particularly important because the sky blue crest doesn't show well against a white background, the lighter elements of the badge merge into a white PNG background at small render sizes. The transparent version in the logo section above handles every kit color correctly, whether your kit is the sky blue home, dark navy away, or maroon third.
| Requirement | Logo | Kit |
|---|---|---|
| Width | 512 pixels | 512 pixels |
| Height | 512 pixels | 512 pixels |
| Format | PNG | PNG (preferred) or JPG |
| Background | Transparent (essential) | Transparent recommended |
| File size | Under 1 MB | Under 1 MB |
| URL type | Direct .png link | Direct .png or .jpg link |

Why does Manchester City use Puma kits in DLS?
Manchester City switched from Nike to Puma in 2019 as part of a long-term commercial deal. This means the Puma Jumpcat logo appears on all City shirts in DLS rather than the Nike swoosh or Adidas stripes you see on other clubs. The Puma branding is accurate to how the real shirts look — it's not a licensing workaround.
Are the 2022/23 Treble season kits available for DLS?
The 2022/23 kits — worn during Manchester City's historic Treble season — are the most searched classic Man City DLS kits. The current page has the 2026/27 designs. For the specific 2022/23 season versions associated with Haaland's record-breaking debut season and the Champions League win, check our classic kits archive.
What size is the Manchester City DLS logo?
Exactly 512x512 pixels in PNG format with a transparent background. Every logo on this page meets that requirement. The transparent background is important for Man City because the sky blue badge needs to sit cleanly on both the white areas of the home kit and the dark navy away kit without a colored rectangle appearing around it.
Do Manchester City DLS kits work in DLS 24, DLS 25, and DLS 26?
Yes. The logo and kit import system is identical across DLS 24, DLS 25, and DLS 26. Any working 512x512 PNG URL used in one version works in all of them. All kit and logo URLs on this page are compatible with every DLS version.
Who is the best player to build around in Manchester City DLS 2026/27?
Erling Haaland is the obvious starting point — his pace, finishing, and physical strength ratings make him one of the two or three highest-rated strikers in all of Dream League Soccer, not just the Premier League. Building a 4-3-3 with Haaland as the sole striker, Phil Foden as the advanced midfielder, and Ederson in goal gives you the three strongest Man City ratings across attack, midfield, and goalkeeping in a single formation.
How many Manchester City kit variants are there for DLS 2026/27?
There are eight Man City kit variants on this page for 2026/27: home outfield kit, away outfield kit, third outfield kit, fourth outfield kit, home GK kit, away GK kit, third GK kit, and fourth GK kit. Each has its own Copy URL button in the kits section above.

Yes, completely free. No signup, no payment, no usage limit. Copy any logo or kit URL from this page and use it directly in Dream League Soccer. All images are CDN-hosted with hotlinking enabled so they load inside the game on the first paste.
What is the sky blue color of Manchester City's kit?
Manchester City's sky blue is a specific shade lighter and brighter than the navy blue used by clubs like Chelsea or Leicester. In Pantone terms it's closest to Process Blue or a comparable bright sky shade. This specific color has been Manchester City's identity since the early twentieth century and is standardized across all Puma commercial products for the club — including the 2026/27 kit that's available above.
Where is the best place to host a custom Manchester City DLS kit?
Imgur and ImgBB are the most reliable free hosting options for custom DLS kits. Both provide a direct .png URL that Dream League Soccer can read without hotlink blocking. Google Drive, Dropbox, and social media platforms all wrap images inside page URLs rather than serving the file directly, which causes the "Image not found" error in DLS.
