CHELSEA fans will be forced to shell out nearly £150 to wear a replica of next season’s kit.
The new strip was released today and many expressed anger over the eye-watering price tag.
To buy a shirt with a name, number and Premier League logo will cost an astonishing £106.95.
Chuck in the shorts (£30) and socks (£13) for a grand total of £149.95.
To put the cost into perspective, a season ticket to watch Barcelona at the Nou Camp costs just £74.
Any Blues fan unfortunate enough to support England as well will be faced with a double whammy.
The England Euro 2016 kit — introduced less than a year after the old top — also comes in at over £100. Expensive fun for all the family.
Three Lions fans have voiced their frustration about the new design after it was debuted against Holland.
Nike have produced shirts for several countries — including France and the USA — which look very similar.
Supporters were also dismayed with the colour scheme which ditched red in favour of light blue.
A cheaper version of the full replica shirt can be bought for £50 before printing costs.
