Puma’s 2018 World Cup international away kits are leaked… and they are truly DREADFUL
Xherdan Shaqiri's Switzerland, Edinson Cavani's Uruguay and Sadio Mane's Senegal could be wearing the strips this summer
PUMA have released the away kits of three of the teams they design for ahead of this summer's World Cup - and the word "basic" is an apt description.
This year's biggest football tournament, to be held in Russia, is bound to be a colourful affair as flags, face-paint and festivals will be the order of the day.
But for Senegal, Switzerland and Uruguay, they might just be hoping they had partnered with a different brand.
The website , usually spot on with kit leaks, has showed off the bland, white away shirts that the players of each of these countries will be wearing in Russia.
They are all the same colour, white, with the only difference being the colour markings around the hem, and obviously the badges at the top.
The likes of Sadio Mane, Xherdan Shaqiri and Edinson Cavani might be hoping the use of the 'away' shirt is kept for emergencies.
And the designs have attracted a fair amount of criticism on social media.
Chris Wachtler said that the company's designs are "getting worse and worse," and that they are "simply uninspiring".

Mohalhel Alkulaib even went as far as to offer his services to the global enterprise.
He wrote on Twitter: "I must design at least one of @acmilan next season kits by @PUMA.

"It will rock sales and I would not take a penny for it."
Another commentator on social media wondered whether Puma were "on a deadline and completely forgot about the away kits".
Puma have also designed the away kits for Austria, Cameroon, Czech Republic, Ghana, Italy and Ivory Coast.
Their enthusiasm for wanting to don them might be as much as ours was when we cast our eyes on the leaked designs.
