Arsenal legend Ian Wright, said: “It’s great to see Adidas and Arsenal bringing back some of the iconic designs which were such a big part of my career in the 90’s.

"It is probably something a lot of the fans would have been hoping for once the partnership was announced.

"It made sense for the current away shirt to be inspired by the original bruised banana jersey and likewise to bring the old one back as well for a one off.”
