Nigerian Grammy Award nominee, Burna Boy and Award winning disc jockey, philanthropist, DJ Cuppy are the two African musicians among the first set of superstars to rock Manchester United’s Adidas third kit for the upcoming 2020/21 season.
The ‘Twice As Tall‘ crooner made his announcement via his social media handles as he shared photos of himself wearing the striped jersey inspired by the club’s history with his name customized at the back of the jersey.
Announcing himself as one of the first recipients of the new kit, Burna Boy wrote;
“Honoured to be one of the first to receive this #NEWKITALERT #READYFORTHENOISE @ManUtd”

In the same time, DJ Cuppy also shared photos and videos of herself rocking the Manchester United third kit.
Both Nigerian superstars were featured alongside other influential personalities such as international musician, Sam Wise, Britain’s top social media influencer, Harry Pinero, Busker and others.
However, Cuppy’s inclusion has caused stir on social media as the ‘Original Copy‘ crooner was known to have switched from Arsenal Football Club few months ago.
