Officials at the Emirates were tight-lipped after being shown the pictures but maintained that any merchandise available or sold before July 10 isn’t recognised as official by the club.
The photograph, originating from the account of supporter James Clarke, is said to have been taken in Puma’s store in Macau.
The home shirt - an unsurprising red number with white trim - was at the head of a rack to include what could be Wojciech Szczesny’s goalkeeper jersey.
And it matches the design worn by Thierry Henry in January when former Olympic sprinter Linford Christie revealed all by accident.
Puma have landed a huge £150million deal with the Gunners after the club ended their long-running association with Nike, with the new strips to be unveiled in a fortnight’s time at the beginning of pre-season.
Kit leaks are now common place, with the Premier League’s top sides almost powerless to plug the embarrassing leaks.
Puma refused to comment.
