First-team squad set for Dubai training camp

Our first-team squad is heading for a training camp in Dubai during the forthcoming winter break.

They will arrive on February 7, returning on February 11.

Emirates Airline, whose partnership with the club is one of the most recognisable and long-standing in sport, will be flying the team to Dubai.

Mikel Arteta will use the training camp to bring the squad together in a warmer climate as part of preparations for the fixture against Newcastle United on February 16, the Europa League clash against Olympiacos four days later and the run-in that follows.

“As we prepare for several key fixtures, we are looking forward to a change of routine with some warm-weather training," Arteta said.
