Arsenal new 2025/26 third kit 'leaks' as design inspired by 07-09 alternative shirt

A reportedly leaked Arsenal 2025/26 third kit indicates Adidas will opt to replicate Nike's 2007-09 alternative shirt.

The German sports apparel company penned a deal with the Gunners back in 2019 and, so far, their kits have impressed. According to Footy Headlines, this new design could go down as one of the most stylish Arsenal kits in history.

It has been claimed the 25/26 third kit will bring back the famous colours of the 07-09 alternative shirt with the white base, maroon logo and gold details. This initial prediction also assumes they will stick with the iconic cannon logo in place of the club's crest, which all three of Arsenal's kits this season have been emblazoned with for the first time in 30 years.

In the 07/08 season, Arsene Wenger's side finished third in the Premier League standings behind Manchester United and Chelsea. Just four points separated first and third in the standings.

They reached the quarter-finals of the Champions League, but were 5-3 on aggregate by English rivals Liverpool. In the domestic cup competitions, they were knocked out of the FA Cup at the fifth round stage, and in the semi-finals of the League Cup.

Typically, most Premier League clubs will release their home shirts in July before the new season kicks off in August. Third kits, however, tend to be unveiled once the new campaign is underway.

It remains to be seen how accurate this supposed leak is. It is important to note that while the pictures claim to show what Arsenal's kit will look like next season, the club will not confirm anything until the official launch next year.
