Leaked: Newcastle United to Get "Full Saudi Kit" In 23-24 Season
Update: A picture of the alleged Newcastle United 23-24 third kit has been sent to and shared by Newcastle kit account @Retro_NUFC. However, it is surely not the real deal - the kit is based on the mock-up we shared on 15 March 2023.

Saudia to Become Newcastle Kit Sponsor?
In addition, the Newcastle 23-24 kits are set to have a new main sponsor. Saudi Arabian airlines Saudia are expected to become Newcastle's new kit maker.
For the 2023-2024 season, Newcastle United will look more like Saudi than ever before with their new third kit. We also get the first hint at the Newcastle United 2023-2024 home kit and information about the Adidas x Newcastle United rumors. Thanks to @ToonMouthTyne and @agbnufc_ for the info.
Castore have refused all attempts of a Newcastle United kit buyout
Newcastle United 23-24 Home Kit
Castore's Newcastle United 23-24 home shirt will evoke memories of the classic mid-1980s kit.
The Castore Newcastle United 23-24 jersey will have a classic design with a v-neck collar similar to the home shirt of the mid-1980s. We expect it to have classic stripes, also like the old jersey.

This picture shows the colors of the new Castore Newcastle United third shirt for 2023-2024.
The Castore Newcastle 2023-24 third jersey combines a green base with white applications - it is the home colors of Saudi Arabia.
There is no info on the exact design of the Newcastle United FC 23-24 third kit.
The Saudi-style is expected to become a regular fixture
According to @agbnufc_, the green and white Saudi-style is expected to become a regular fixture as the club ramps up commercial activities in the Middle East.
The club's chief commercial officer, Peter Silverstone, has confirmed that Newcastle United is focused on growing its fan base and following in Saudi Arabia and the rest of the Middle East. The club's ambition is to become the most supported global football team in Saudi Arabia.
The move is also seen as a way to help with Financial Fair Play regulations by increasing the club's revenue streams.

Adidas to Take Over From 24-25 Season?
Meanwhile, Castore have refused all attempts of a Newcastle United kit buyout (via @ToonMouthTyne). "Newcastle United will probably get Adidas as a kit sponsor but it won't be next season", according to @agbnufc_. Adidas most probably will take over from the 2024-2025 season, when we expect the Newcastle United Castore kit deal to expire.
