Arsenal have been forced to cancel their pre-season tour to America after a Covid outbreak hit their travelling party.
The Gunners were due to fly out to the States on Wednesday for the two-game trip, in a tournament called the Florida Cup in Orlando.
Mikel Arteta’s side were due to face Italian champions Inter Milan on Sunday and then either Everton or Colombian side Millionarios in their second game.
But a small number of people in their 80-strong group of players and club staff set to board Wednesday afternoon's flight from Stansted Airport tested positive resulting in Arsenal having little option other than to withdraw from the planned trip, in a major blow to their pre-season preparations.
