Arsenal started their pre-season tour with a 3-0 win over Colorado Rapids under Bukayo Saka, Eddie Nketiah and new Brazilian rookie Gabriel Martinelli.
With a limited transfer budget, Arsenal may have to rely on Academy graduates for the upcoming season. Unai Emery hinted that it was a good platform to claim a place in the team first.
Speaking at Dick's Sporting Goods Park, he said, "We are working very well here in Los Angeles and the first game was a good idea to appeal to different young players in order to give them the opportunity to show their quality, their commitment to work and to be with the idea. to help the team. "
When he was asked about the new recruitment, Martinelli, Emery preferred to focus on the broader impact of the team.
"Our idea is to give every young player the opportunity to be with us, first on the training field and after playing matches like today. The idea is to give them more chances in other matches. They will win the opportunity to be with us with their performances. "
This pre-season is also the first at Emery where he is joined by his new sports director, Edu, who played under his orders for a year in Valencia.
"He (Edu) has experience. He knows Arsenal. He is a very good worker for us in this position of sports director. Raul, Vinai and I were trying to find the best person who could help us with the experience and also with the knowledge of this club. It's Edu. For me, it's the ideal man to do it, "said Emery.
We can only hope that everything will be positive from the moment Arsenal needs all the help it can to get this pre-season.
