With three monumental matches remaining this season, Arsenal stands on the brink of securing their first Premier League title in over 20 years, as well as their inaugural UEFA Champions League trophy later this month.
Mikel Arteta’s squad has dominated the top of the English table throughout much of the season. With two critical league matches ahead, along with a decisive showdown against Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League final on May 30, they are poised to achieve an impressive European double.
In what appears to be a preview, the Gunners may well take the field in next season’s kit.

Arsenal’s classic red and white color scheme remains intact, but the new kit’s details draw inspiration from the Emirates Stadium, coinciding with the 20th anniversary of the club’s heartfelt transition from Highbury in the summer of 2006.
The design speaks subtly to the stadium’s architecture, with the crew neck collar inspired by the roof’s lines. The collar and cuffs are adorned with a stylized lightning motif familiar from Arsenal’s kits, reminiscent of their iconic away jerseys from the early to mid-1990s. Additionally, thick two-tone Adidas stripes run along the sleeves, complemented by a faint checkered texture in the fabric.
Adidas’s designers seem to align with Arteta’s “trust the process” philosophy, as Arsenal’s home kits haven’t dramatically changed in recent years. However, if Arteta and his team can solidify their success in the concluding matches of 2025-26, they might don a new set of golden sleeve patches on their new 2026-27 kit come August.
Neither Arsenal nor PSG, who recently unveiled their 2026-27 home kit, have confirmed that they will be wearing their new jerseys in the final in Budapest. However, it wouldn’t be surprising to see both teams sport them when they kick off at the Puskás Aréna in two weeks.
