The Aston Villa jersey, which does not tolerate perspiration well, poses a big problem for the English club’s players…
This is the shirt of contention for Aston Villa. The tunic provided to the Villans by the equipment manufacturer Castore has a major defect. Obviously, it does not tolerate the perspiration of players. During the first matches of the season, we could see Boubacar Kamara and his teammates finish their matches with their jerseys stuck to their chests, because of the sweat.
What is a rather embarrassing detail for the players could become a big problem for the women’s section of the club. Before their return match against Manchester United this weekend, the players have sounded the alarm, because they fear ending up with a tunic that is a little too suggestive.
A lot has been said about Aston Villa’s wet look shirt, let’s first make one thing very clear, this isn’t a wet look shirt, it actually is wringing wet, usually after about 5 minutes of game time, it’s a manufacturing blunder that needs to be put right, It’s a disgrace.#AVFC pic.twitter.com/yhbZA9MaiL

“They dread playing it, for obvious reasons, deplores consultant Jacqui Oatley in the columns of the Daily Mail.No woman I know wants to be hot and sweaty and have her workout gear hanging off her everywhere, live on TV especially. This simply shouldn’t happen. Personally, I think that these women must have a different jersey to play, I think that we absolutely must find a solution before Sunday. »
The Aston Villa club also asked its equipment supplier to provide it with new outfits urgently before the meeting between its women’s team and Manchester United.
