Arsenal Set For Dubai Training Camp
Arsenal first-team squad will be 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.
“Dubai is a fantastic place and the football facilities there are first class. It will do us good to experience a change of environment before we enter a crucial part of the season.”
