'Is this a uniform?'

Everton of the English Premier League (EPL) have been under fire since the pre-season over the incident of the `loose' uniform.

According to British media such as `Daily Star" on the 20th (Korea time), Everton faced fierce ridicule as they played a friendly match and showed a fuss about the club's logo patch falling off one of the players' uniforms during the game.



Everton played a friendly match against Sligo Rovers in the Irish League and drew 3-3 on the same day. It's a pre-season friendly, but it was a disappointing result for Everton fans just to draw after falling behind 1-3 against a relative lower league team.

However, local media reported that what attracted the fans' attention rather than the result of the game was an absurd incident that occurred during the game. Even sarcastically said, "'Everton has recently negotiated with Friedkin Group, which is willing to take over the club, and it seems to disprove the poor club's situation.'



The absurdity occurred before the end of the first half. It's when Everton midfielder Idrissa Gueye is concentrating on the game, staring at the ball contention. Suddenly, the team's logo patch, which was attached to the left chest of Gueye's uniform, magically disappeared and reappeared.

If you look closely at the video, it wasn't magic, and maybe the logo-attached finish was poor, and the patch was flapping just before it completely fell off. The blue-top uniform was produced by British sports brand Castore, the main sponsor, and was released for 110 pounds (about 197,000 won).



It was ambitiously introduced for the new season, but the scene that gives the impression that the product is poor was exposed. Later at half-time, Gueye made a second half appearance after firmly reattaching the logo patch.

The video spread rapidly through social media 'X', and the media reported that fans of rival teams quickly began to mock Toffees (Everton's nickname) when the logo fell off the uniform priced at '110 pounds.

On social media, soccer fans said "Everton made his debut with Castore, but his badge dropped. This is a scene that can't be made up","Castore is the worst brand of football shirts I've ever seen"," logo is already falling off the uniform shirt. His name is a professional team uniform, and he weighs 110 pounds..." A cold reaction from his back.

Against this, Everton are fluttering more than the badge of the game, which is the basis of our football fans' support for who will take over the club. Today was Everton's best game ever."
