Arsenal Home Shirt, 1998–99, short sleeve, No. 9 Nicolas Anelka, Nike, JVC sponsor.

Short-sleeve Arsenal home shirt from the 1998–99 season, produced by Nike with JVC as main sponsor. The reverse carries Anelka 9 in original official 1990s flock lettering and numbering, not a modern addition.

Nicolas Anelka wore the No. 9 shirt during his breakout season at Highbury. Still only a teenager, he became one of the most exciting forwards in Europe, combining pace, balance and clinical finishing in Arsène Wenger’s Double-winning side. In 1998–99 he scored 17 Premier League goals and was named PFA Young Player of the Year.
