After missing out on last season's Champions League places by just one point, Arsenal's preparations for the upcoming campaign have already begun. The Gunners are currently away in Germany where they are in the middle of a pre-season training camp at Adidas HQ in Nuremberg.
The trip has so far seen signings Matt Turner, Marquinhos and Gabriel Jesus all look to impress their new teammates ahead of Friday's friendly with FC Nurnberg. There had been hopes that further fresh additions could join them, with Youri Tielemans, Raphinha and Lisandro Martinez among the players being linked, but that is now highly unlikely.
This gives some of the Gunners youngsters a chance to impress Mikel Arteta, with many of the players who were away on international duty not back yet from their holidays. One of those who is already catching the eye is Charlie Patino.
