North London is...White? Arsenal's Bizarre Ruling Ahead of Upcoming North London Derby vs Tottenham Hotspur
News 18Seems like North London has been deemed white, or rather too white in the case of the PGMOL and Premier League as Arsenal will have to wear their away kit against north London rivals Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday due to their red-and-white home kit featuring too much white, clashing with the colours of Spurs. For the first time in Premier League history, Arsenal will wear their black away kit against Tottenham this weekend. ⚪️❌ pic.twitter.com/NZUP9aK3SY — DailyAFC September 10, 2024 “Both teams will be wearing their away strips in the fixtures this campaign, after PGMOL and Premier League ruled that our 2024-25 home kit features too much white, thus clashing with Tottenham’s traditional colours,” Arsenal said on Tuesday. “As a result, for the first time in recent NLD history, we’ll be wearing our changed colours, with our black adidas away kit being donned at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium where we’ll aim to clinch a third-straight victory at the venue.” This comes across as insult to injury for a hobbled Arsenal, who have been plagued by the injury big lately, losing out on major players such as new signee Mikel Merino, Declan Rice and now captain Martin Odegaard himself ahead of a stretch of stringent fixtures for the Gunners.
