The Premier League clubs are gearing up for another action-packed season. With the summer transfer window still open, several teams have already kicked off their pre-season training. In between all of these, Aston Villa have unveiled their official home kit for the upcoming season. It is going to be a historic campaign for the Hammers, who earned Champions League qualification last term with a fourth-place finish in the Premier League. Aston Villa has taken up a unique approach to release their next season’s home kit.
The club shared a kit launch video featuring Ozzy Osbourne and Geezer Butler, members of the legendary British rock band Black Sabbath. West Ham Striker Ollie Watkins and goalkeeper Emi Martinez also appeared in the clip alongside manager Unai Emery. A fan was captured praying in front of a portrait of club legend Paul McGrath.
Aston Villa used Osbourne’s famous song ‘Paranoid’ as the background music, paying tribute to the rockstar, who is a die-hard fan of the football club. Butler, wearing the new season’s home kit, was spotted speaking with Martinez inside the dressing room of the Villa Park. Osbourne could be heard shouting “up the villa” along with some fans and the players. It was also the title of the jersey launch video.
Aston Villa has shown significant growth under Unai Emery. The Spanish manager has helped the club qualify for the Champions League for the first since the tournament was rebranded from the European Cup. Aston Villa won the continental showpiece in 1982. Aston Villa will take on Columbus Crew in a pre-season friendly on July 28 in Ohio.
