Team news: Norgaard starts against AC Milan

Mikel Arteta has included Christian Norgaard in his first line-up of pre-season, as we take on AC Milan in the Singapore National Stadium.

The summer recruit starts alongside Declan Rice and Ethan Nwaneri in midfield, while fellow new signings Kepa Arrizabalaga and Martin Zubimendi are both among the subs.

Several teenagers are also on the bench, including 15-year-olds Max Dowman and Marli Salmon, both of whom could make their non-competitive first-team debuts.

Kai Havertz is in the starting XI for the first time since February, while Gabriel is not included in the squad at all as he continues his rehab from last season’s hamstring injury.
