Arsenal kits 2019/20: NBA star excites fans with leaked image of 'bruised banana' away shirt

The launch of Arsenal's home kit was a booming success.

This season marks the return to kit manufacturer adidas following the end of a five-year deal with Puma.

The red and white home kit was released at the start of July to huge fanfare, leaving fans waiting with real anticipation for the launch of the away kit.

The new away jersey is not due to be released until July 15, but a social media post suggests that the shirt  thas been revealed to the world a little prematurely.

A picture has emerged online of Houston Rockets’ basketball player James Harden posing in what looks like the new away kit alongside Reiss Nelson who is wearing the home shirt.

There had been suggestions that fans could very well see see a return to the 'bruised banana' colour scheme that was popular with the club between 1991 and 1993.

And the suggestion has not only excited fans, but players as well.

Striker  Alexandre Lacazette posted a mock up  of him wearing the kit on his Instagram stories a couple of months ago.

As for the third kit, the first appearance of the navy and yellow colour scheme came to supporters' attentions in last month and it garnered a  positive reaction on Twitter .

But all the attention right now is very much garnered towards next Monday when the away kit will be officially revealed to the world.
