CF Talavera de la Reina Overview

Arsenal face an anxious wait after Kai Havertz was forced off with a suspected hamstring injury during Germany’s 1-1 draw with the Netherlands. The setback marred Jurgen Klopp’s first match in charge of the national team, which also saw Jamal Musiala withdraw before kick-off.

Gabriel Martinelli opted for a radical change of scenery this summer, snubbing interest from fellow Premier League clubs to complete a lucrative move to Al-Hilal. The Brazilian winger brought his long-standing association with Arsenal to an end after being informed he was surplus to requirements by Mikel Arteta.

Arsenal starlet Myles Lewis-Skelly has raised eyebrows by naming a current Tottenham Hotspur player as the most difficult opponent he has encountered in the Premier League. The 19-year-old utility man, who has enjoyed a meteoric rise under Mikel Arteta, bypassed the division's established superstars to highlight a rival from across north London.

Bukayo Saka has heaped praise on Arsenal's record-breaking teenager Max Dowman, describing the young midfielder's natural ability as completely "insane". The England winger also sent a clear message to the 16-year-old sensation, warning that his future success now depends entirely on his own dedication and work ethic.
