Jack Wilshere has unveiled the new England kit which will be worn by the Three Lions for the first time next month.

The Arsenal midfielder returned to his old school in Hitchin to launch the kit, which is the first to be manufactured by Nike, ending a 59-year stretch of Umbro kits.

The 21-year-old tweeted a picture of student Jason Kelly wearing the new kit, adding: "Like this kid, my England dream began here, so he was first in #theshirt - England's new kit from @NikeFootball"

Twitter users have been comparing the plain white shirt with dark collar to the kit the West Germany wore in 1966.

The England team will wear the shirt for the first time when they play the Republic of Ireland next month.
