The Legacy

Nike supplied this home shirt for Arsenal in the 1996-1997 season, a year that marked the arrival of Arsène Wenger midway through the campaign. The team finished third in the Premier League. Ian Wright remained the primary goalscoring threat, supported by the creative touch of Dennis Bergkamp. Tony Adams continued his role as captain in central defence, while Patrick Vieira settled into the midfield following his arrival from AC Milan. The JVC sponsorship appeared on the front of the kit as the side adjusted to new tactical demands under the incoming management.

Key Moment
