Scotland and Arsenal star Kieran Tierney and Nigerian starlet, Bukayo Saka, have been revealed as the players that have had the most shirts sold on the club’s website.
The duo overtook Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang as the most popular name for fans to have on the back of the new Gunners strip.
Tierney endured a difficult first few months in London due to injuries but has been a huge success since the Premier League’s restart.
He was named Arsenal’s Player of the Month for June by fans who also tipped him as a future Gunners captain.
His No.3 strip is the most popular choice since the 2020/21 kit release last month, while Saka is surprisingly the second-best seller so far.
The versatile academy graduate enjoyed a stunning breakthrough campaign at Arsenal as he notched 11 goals and four assists.
The 18-year-old had worn the No.77 shirt but has now been handed the prestigious No.7 jersey previously worn by Robert Pires and Alexis Sanchez.
Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta is desperate for Aubameyang to stay, but some fans may be erring on the side of caution in terms of shirt sales in case he doesn’t.
The Gabon superstar’s strike partner Alexandre Lacazette is pushed down to fourth, with his future also a source of speculation.
Despite fans not expecting to see Mesut Ozil play much football in Arsenal’s new kit next season, the club’s highest paid star is in the top ten.
The German superstar still has a proven name value and is ninth for shirt sales with Granit Xhaka rounding off the club’s most popular names.
