7 Arsenal youths join first-team training pre-Fleetwood Town clash
Story updated
The story in brief
7-second readSeven Arsenal youth players took part in first-team training on Monday, ahead of the senior side's League Cup match against Fleetwood Town on Tuesday.
From the source
Arsenal are set to play League Two side Fleetwood Town on Tuesday night, perhaps representing an opportunity for some youth players to get a rare opportunity in the senior squad.
With the majority of Arsenal’s games coming in a Premier League title race or the Champions League at the moment, the League Cup is the one competition where the pressure isn’t quite as high – particularly when the Gunners are facing lower-league opposition.
So the day before Tuesday’s game, it was noteworthy that quite a few academy prospects took part in first-team training. Forwards Andre Harriman-Annous, James Scanlon, Igor Tyjon, and Ceadach O’Neill all joined the session, along with midfielders Ife Ibrahim and Theo Julienne, and left-back Marcell Washington.
