The international break came at the wrong time for Chelsea with Thomas Tuchel's men on a brilliant 14-match unbeaten run before the Premier League was brought to a halt.

The west London club have moved up from ninth to fourth in the top flight since the German's appointment in January, and they have beaten the likes of Tottenham, Liverpool and Atletico Madrid (twice) in that run.

Remarkably, the Blues have conceded just two goals in that time, with their defence now one of the meanest in the division.

However, one unlikely cause for concern has cropped up for the Stamford Bridge faithful during the two-week break.

New kits for the 2021/21 season have been leaked online and we at talkSPORT.com think Chelsea fans might be a tad disappointed with what we have spotted.

FootyHeadlines, who have revealed a handful of reported kits from other big clubs across Europe, including Real Madrid, Juventus and Bayern Munich, have got hold of the Blues' new home kit for next season and it's different to say the least.

You can look at this kit, below...

The shirt is very different to previous Blues’ home kits. The main colour is 'Lyon Blue' but this time it features 'Opti Yellow' logos rather than the traditional white colours.

Design-wise, Nike have gone for an abstract zig-zag and checker all-over print.

A v-collar is used round the neck, while there are yellow stripes along the sides.

What do you make of the leaked kit, Blues fans?
