Arsenal to wave goodbye to club icon as Mikel Arteta takes aim at Premier League title

At the end of the season after the jubilation to reflect on the successes and failures of a campaign the Arsenal players will do a lap of the field. This is often a time for supporters to show appreciation for the team and in some cases say goodbye to figures whose careers in north London are coming to an end.

Last season it was Alexandre Lacazette who waved goodbye before joining Lyon on a free transfer. The Emirates Stadium has seen big goodbyes to legendary figures like Arsene Wenger and emotional farewells to a teary-eyed Aaron Ramsey and the now-returned manager Mikel Arteta.

However, a departure of a very different kind in just nine games time when Arsenal finish their season at home to Wolves will be a sad one for many fans. Although some players could be waving goodbye, the last game of the season will mark the end of what has become an iconic away kit this season.
