FA Cup 2024-25: Why Arsenal players will be wearing an all-white kit against Manchester United?
Arsenal will have a different look when it hosts Manchester United in the FA Cup 2024-25 third-round tie today.
Mikel Artera’s boys will not wear their usual red and white home kit against United. Instead, the Gunners will be wearing an all-white kit to once again mark their ‘No More Red’ campaign.
Launched in January 2022, this is the fourth year the North London club has collaborated with Adidas on the campaign, which works to help keep young people safe from knife crime and youth violence.
Work has centred on investing in safe spaces to play, providing ongoing opportunities for connection and championing community role models.
According to the club’s website, “No More Red was launched in January 2022 to support and build on 40 years of Arsenal in the Community’s work to help keep young people safe from knife crime and youth violence.”
To mark the fourth year of the initiative, adidas and Arsenal have brought together Zakaria Hassan, George Hobden, and Amy Scanlon, who have all been recognised for the positive difference they are making in their local community, with first-team players Declan Rice, Myles Lewis-Skelly, and Alessia Russo to discuss the impact of No More Red.
Arsenal has also released a short film on the campaign on social media.
