MLS kits leaked
This is truly a worst-case scenario for the designers of those kits and the content creators for the teams. Designing and revealing new kits is an excruciating and exciting process. To have all the hard work spoiled from a mistake like this is devastating.
None of the clubs, MLS or EAFC have publicly commented on the goof yet. Needless to say, there are likely some unpleasant conversations happening between those in charge of the video game and the clubs.
On the bright side many of the new kits look great.
