Arsenal's official club shop near the Emirates Stadium was cordoned off by police tape Friday morning following an alleged overnight break-in. The incident occurred between 3:30 a.m. and 4:30 a.m. on Drayton Park in north London, according to the Metropolitan Police.
Authorities found one of the store's doors on the ground with another hanging off its hinges. Police cars remained at the scene for several hours, and a forensic team was deployed to conduct an investigation. A police spokesperson stated that the force is investigating a theft at the shop and is working to gather CCTV footage to identify those responsible.
No arrests have been made at this stage. The club shop sells a range of official Arsenal merchandise, with prices for a men's home shirt for the 2026-27 season starting at £85. Modified authentic shirts can cost upwards of £146.
