It cannot go on all season. The players look like they&#8217;ve jumped in a swimming pool after about 10 minutes.&#8217;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The issue would present an embarrassing problem for Castore, who signed a multi-year deal with Villa that began at the start of this season.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/09\/27\/00\/75869697-12564333-image-a-75_1695771330973.jpg\" height=\"423\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Aston Villa skipper John McGinn is ringing with sweat during the club&#8217;s clash with Chelsea\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/09\/27\/00\/75869665-12564333-image-a-76_1695771336360.jpg\" height=\"471\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Players have stated the shirts are uncomfortable to wear and are hindering their performance<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/09\/27\/00\/75869691-12564333-image-m-88_1695771778762.jpg\" height=\"470\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>The sweat was particularly evident during their Europa Conference League defeat in Poland\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Your browser does not support iframes.<\/p>\n<p>A relative newcomer into the field, the sportswear brand also supplies kits for Wolves and Newcastle in the Premier League as well as SPL side Rangers.
