One of the main talking points at the Emirates this summer is whether Alexis, who has just one year left on his current contract with talks ongoing over an extension, is staying or going.

The Chilean star is reportedly unhappy at Arsenal and with Bayern Munich and Manchester City circling, there are fears among Gunners fans that he could be off.

And Arsenal fans feared the worst when an option on the club website allowed fans to purchase a new Welbeck home shirt with the number seven on the back of it.

Number seven is, of course, the number Alexis currently wears at Arsenal.

Cue mass panic from Arsenal fans.







In fairness to Arsenal, they have hastily corrected this error, but fans will be hoping it was not a sign of things to come.
