Stars & Rivals of The Premier League Linked up in Full Burberry at LFW

A trio of high-profile Premier League footballers put their allegiances aside as they sat front row at London’s Highbury Fields during LFW to witness Burberry‘s second and very British collection with Daniel Lee at the reigns. 

Last weekend’s event saw Arsenal‘s Bukayo Saka, Tottenham‘s Son Heung-min, and Crystal Palace’s Eberechi Eze swap their pitch attire for their own unique, new season Burberry fit (seen below). 

Already with two goals in five games this season, 22-year-old Saka opted for a sleek, unbuttoned tailored black look finished with mossy green brogues on his feet.

A slightly more eye-catching look, Eze went for a daring red checkered turtleneck jumper, matched with checkered trousers in a different shade of red for a contrasting finish. 

Online users are claiming Son‘s Burberry look is the pick of the bunch with his double-breasted green trench coat that effortlessly falls down to his shins. The look is finished off with some contrasting green trousers that are just about visible and polished black shoes.

The South Korean superstar may have felt like he has a point to prove, having been named an official Burberry ambassador last year. However, having a wardrobe full of Burberry at you dispense is one thing, knowing how to style it is another.

With Arsenal set to host Tottenham at the Emirates this Sunday, 24 September, social media erupted with mixed emotions when they saw Saka and Son sitting side by side at LFW.

Many were delighted to see the respect the two rivals clearly have for each other, while many couldn’t fully embrace this display of friendship… It’s almost like they wanted to see the pair choke each other in the middle of London’s most prestige fashion event.
