West Ham United has unveiled its home kit for the 2016-17 campaign, and it offers several nods to the club's move to the Olympic Stadium in Stratford.

A Union Jack motif is featured on the sleeves as a nod to its new Olympic abode that staged the 2012 showpiece, and text underneath the new crest commemorates this historic change of home from the Boleyn Ground.

Supporters will also be pleased to see Dimitri Payet among those modelling the fresh threads. Following a sensational Euro 2016 campaign with France, the 29-year-old midfielder was subject to much speculation over his future. To see him at the forefront of this uniform promotion will alleviate some remaining concerns that he's seeking pastures new.
