Keir Starmer takes to football pitch for his weekly game of five-a-side – but can you spot what’s ‘wrong’ with his kit?

Today, SIR Keir Starmer opted out of wearing an England shirt during his weekly kickabout.

The Labour leader instead donned a 2024-2025 Netherlands away top while he played for his five-a-side team in North London.

The Dutch navy blue jersey features different tones of blue and orange and was released by Nike.

The Arsenal fan was put through his paces in the friendly Sunday league game.

At one point he unleashed a fierce shot in midfield and was also spotted helping out an injured player.

He urged his team on in the kickabout and argued their case with the ref as his side drew 8-8.

Sir Keir wore an elastic support band for a knee injury he picked up before the game.

The 62-year-old is a big football fan and is often spotted watching Arsenal at the Emirates.

He has been part of the same weekly five-a-side game for decades and has vowed to play on unless “irreparably injured”.

The head of the Labour Party previously said: “Unless I’m irreparably injured, I intend to do it for as long as I possibly can.

“I used to be FA-registered, it was competitive stuff, but these are friendlies, eight-a-side and five-a-side.”

He also hailed England’s Euros semi-final win against the Netherlands in July as he attended the Nato summit in Washington DC.

“What a game England and what a winner,” the Prime Minister wrote on X, formerly Twitter, at the time.

He watched Harry Kane score England’s equaliser during the match in a room with his Dutch counterpart.

The PM shook hands with the Netherlands’ Dick Schoof after the spot-kick was drilled home.

But Sir Keir recently came under fire when it emerged he and other ministers accepted freebie tickets.

He said he used the directors’ box because of security concerns.

In September, Keir hit back at accusations he was “King of the Freebies” as he defended his VIP Arsenal tickets.

The Prime Minister insisted it was “common sense” for him to sit in football hospitality seats after declaring more than £100,000 of gifts.
