Manchester United, Manchester City to Honour Terror Attack Victims on Shirts

Manchester United and Manchester City will wear special kits featuring the "worker bee" to honour victims of the Manchester attack when the two teams meet in Houston on July 20. 

The Red Devils announced the news via their official website:

"The fixture will be the first Manchester derby to take place outside of the UK, and the first meeting between the two clubs following the terrorist attack in Manchester in May. 

"Symbolising the industrial heritage of Manchester and its people, the worker bee has been an emblem since the Victorian era and was adopted into the city’s coat of arms in 1842. 

"Following the match at Houston’s NRG Stadium, both clubs will make the match-worn shirts available for fans to purchase, via auction, with all proceeds going to the We Love Manchester Emergency Fund."

The city of Manchester was rocked by a terrorist attack in May following a concert at the Manchester Arena. The two clubs immediately paid tribute to the victims and have been working to help the community―often together―ever since.

City's official Twitter account shared this image of what the shirts will look like:

The club also announced fans can have the worker bee added to their kits for a fee of £3, with proceeds going to charity.

United and City will meet as part of the 2017 International Champions Cup, a friendly tournament organised in the United States, Singapore and China.
