Arsenal are set to replace the club's crest with the iconic cannon on all of their shirts for next season.

The cannon has become synonymous with the north London outfit ever since they were founded in 1886, with this traced back to the roots of the club, while it also explains the Gunners' nickname.

Arsenal's shirts have used the cannon instead of the badge before, most notably on their green third kit this season, along with the 2022-23 black away kit. 

However, according to The Athletic, next season will be the first time in recent years that just the cannon will be emblazoned across all of Arsenal's shirts. 

This means the traditional club crest, which features the cannon and has the words 'Arsenal' inscribed on it, will not be in use.
