Adidas has sent Petr Cech's goalkeeper gloves to Chelsea's training ground ahead of Arsenal's league clash against the Blues by mistake.
Petr Cech has spent 11 years at Stamford Bridge and won the English Premier four times before he moved to the Gunners this Summer. He could become the first player since legendary Eric Cantona to win successive Premier League titles with different clubs.
Adidas Sends Cech's Gloves to Arsenal's Training Ground
Petr Cech still trained in his Adidas History Pack Goalkeeper Gloves on Thursday.
Arsenal's arch rivals Chelsea did not want to have any advantage because of Adidas' mistake and therefore forwarded the gloves on to Cech. However, while the story is actually nothing extremely special, even Guss Hiddink commented on the case in today's pre-match press conference.
"I was here when Petr showed up," Hiddink said in his pre-match press conference. It was nice to see him. We had a chat. Almost everyone was gone. We tried to hide them, also we tried to make them slippery but he discovered that. They were sent here and we gave them back. That's the story."
