Raising awareness against violence in London, and in particular murders committed with knives, is the message that Arsenal will send by playing in all white against the Reds.
Arsenal will wear a white jersey against Liverpool on Sunday, a first at home in their 137-year history, in the third round of the FA Cup. The Premier League club chose this outfit for a good cause.
This will highlight “No More Red”, the movement to raise awareness of knife crime and youth violence in London.
🚨A very special program on Sunday 🚨
⚪️ Dedicated to the 2024 No More Red campaign
👊 Including exclusive interviews with Martin Odegaard, Emile Smith Rowe, Per Mertesacker & Max Kuczynski

21 homicides involved teenagers in the English capital in 2023, including 18 with knives, an increase of 33% compared to the previous year, said the BBC.
The Gunners women’s team will also wear a full white kit on January 14 against Watford (4th round of the FA Cup).
