Strictly star Tony Adams set to ‘infuriate’ fans with his outfit on this weekend’s show
STRICTLY Come Dancing star Tony Adams is likely to "infuriate" Arsenal fans this weekend - and it's all because of his outfit.
The former footballer will transform into a red devil, which is the mascot of rivals Manchester United.
Tony, 56, was Arsenal's captain and played centre-back for 19 years with a total of 672 appearances.
Despite big-money offers to go to Manchester United, Tony stayed loyal to his team.
But on Saturday night, as he performs in Strictly's Halloween week, he'll be dressed as a devil - Man U's crest.
Tony's been rehearsing a quickstep all week, which he'll perform to The Devil Went Down to Georgia by The Charlie Daniels Band.

Katya replied: "What you said is right, I took a risk.
