Arsenal has been marking the anniversary of their capture of Sol Campbell from North London rivals Tottenham Hotspur.

It is 16 years ago today that Campbell made his hugely controversial switch from Spurs to the Gunners.

Arsenal celebrated his decision to do so by sharing a photo of him clutching the Premier League and FA Cup trophies at the end of their double-winning season today.
They also encouraged fans to use the hashtag: “#SolIsAGooner.”

Prior to his move on July 3, 2001, Campbell was Tottenham’s captain and had made 315 appearances. He joined their youth setup as a 14-year-old in 1989.
