Arsenal midfielder, Bukayo Saka was among the club's stars who modeled the new away kit for the 2021-22 English Premier League season.

This comes after the Gunners official unveiled the new kit on their official website on Friday, May 14.

Club captain Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Thomas Partey, David Luiz, Kieran Tierney, and Emile Smith Rowe were amongst the other stars that modeled the kit.

Launched on the 50th anniversary of Arsenal’s FA Cup win in 1971, the colour – officially detailed as Pearl Citrine by Adidas – is similiar to that worn on Wembley half a century below, complete sports reports.

The yellow also follows a similar theme of Gunners’ away kits, with a brighter yellow on show as recently as the 2019-20 season.

The design is completed with the traditional three adidas stripes on the shoulders and a black-and-red trim around the collar and sleeves.

Perhaps the most striking design aspect is the club crest, or lack thereof. 

Instead of the traditional badge, the famous cannon adorns the left chest – another hallmark of shirts of the past.
