Arsenal team news
Declan Rice and Jurrien Timber are hoping to make their Arsenal debuts in tonightâs friendly match.
Mikel Arteta has assured fans that ÂŁ105million capture Rice is not suffering from an injury despite being pictured working away from the group in training earlier this week.
âWe just wanted to manage him,â Arsenal boss Arteta said of the England international.
Obviously a lot has happened to him in the last five or six days. He had a very hectic schedule and he had a few training sessions that went really good, but prior to that, he didnât do much before he joined us.â
Along with potential places for Rice and Timber, Arteta could hand Kai Havertz a first start having brought him off the bench for the draw with Nurnberg last week.
It would not be a surprise to see Arteta start strong against the All-Stars and he will have been monitoring the fitness of Oleksandr Zinchenko ahead of the game.
Predicted Arsenal XI: Ramsdale; Timber, Saliba, Gabriel, Tierney; Odegaard, Rice, Havertz; Saka, Jesus, Martinelli.
