The German sportswear giant will take over from Puma, whose five-year deal expires at the end of the season.
A statement on the club’s Twitter feed said: “Arsenal and Adidas have agreed a new kit partnership, effective from July 1, 2019.”

It’s understood that the deal is worth around £300million, for five years until 2023 - marking it out at £60million per season, double their current deal.
That would mean that only Adidas’ agreement with Manchester United (£75m per-year) and Nike’s deal with Barcelona (£140m per-year) are valued higher.
It is a further boost to the club’s coffers, at a time when the new shirt sponsorship agreement with Emirates kicks in. That deal is worth £200million.
Arsenal last donned the three stripes between 1986 and 1994, during which time they won the league title twice, under the management of George Graham.
