Arteta on Singapore arrival and new signings

Mikel Arteta has spoken to the media for the first time this pre-season, shortly after arriving in Singapore at the start of our Asia Tour.

The manager hosted a press conference at the Singapore National Stadium, ahead of facing AC Milan on Wednesday, July 23.

He was asked about training in Singapore, the state of the squad, how the new players are settling in, the potential for further signings, and more.

“We are super excited to be here,” he began. “It’s been an incredible welcome from our supporters here, they are so passionate. We are adapting as well to the context, the weather, we weren't able to train this morning, so we have to adapt to those situations as well.
