Michael van Gerwen’s bright green shirt has been one of the most feared and recognisable sights in darts.
The ‘Green Machine’ is the world number one and, on Sunday, won the Masters for a fourth straight year.
However, when his Premier League title defence begins on Thursday, he will be sporting a different look.

Gone is his bright green top, replaced by one which resembles a Borussia Dortmund strip.
Will it affect his performance? Almost certainly not. But seeing ‘Mighty Mike’ in a new get-up will take some getting used to.
