Unai Emery has selected a strong team for Arsenal’s mid-season friendly in Dubai.
The Gunners take on Al-Nasr this afternoon as part of a warm-weather training camp, as the north Londoners enjoy a break from domestic action with international football in full swing.
A number of Arsenal’s senior players travelled to Dubai as part of the training squad, and Bernd Leno, Shkodran Mustafi, Mesut Ozil and Alexandre Lacazette have all been selected to start against Al-Nasr.
There is also a first start for Denis Suarez following his January loan move from Barcelona.
Suarez has struggled to adapt to English football since penning a temporary deal with the Gunners, and there are even suggestions they may cancel his loan and send him back to Camp Nou.
