The players will don the green shirt with navy blue trim when they return to action in the Premier League this weekend after the international break.

The shirt was created after talks with the Premier League to avoid possible kit clashes with the club's existing home and away strips.

Albion will wear the third kit for a small number of games during this season.

Club bosses have seized the opportunity to help raise funds for The Albion Foundation.

It will not be available to purchase but supporters have the chance to own the real thing by joining an auction for each of the match shirts.

All profits from the auction will go to the foundation to help fund its community projects.

The first auction will run from September 15 for seven days on the club's auction site.

This will be repeated after any other fixtures this season in which the Baggies wear this change shirt.
