Rosicky included in final Czech Republic squad for Euro 2016

Despite playing just one game for Arsenal in 2015-16, the veteran midfielder will travel to France with his nation after taking the captain's armband on Friday

Tomas Rosicky has been named in Czech Republic's final squad for Euro 2016.

The midfielder, who is set become a free agent when his Arsenal contract expires at the end of June, was selected in the provisional squad despite playing just 19 minutes for the London club in a campaign ravaged by injuries.

Rosicky featured in only five of Czech Republic's 10 qualifying games but captained his country in a 6-0 friendly win over Malta on Friday.
