Arsenal have announced a new yellow away kit for next season, paying tribute to the 1971 Double winners.

Bertie Mee's side - featuring Bob Wilson, Pat Rice, George Graham, Frank McLintock and Charlie George - won the league and FA Cup in 1970-71, with this release coming 50 years later.

And the yellow kit with blue trim features the traditional Arsenal cannon instead of the club crest, as that Double-winning team did on their jerseys.
