Arsenal's 25-man Premier League squad to include 'forgotten' midfielder after eight summer deals

There could be a surprise inclusion in Arsenal's Premier League squad when it's made official.

Following the closure of the summer transfer window, the Gunners will soon be permitted to name a 25-man squad for the top-flight of English football from which no more than 17 overseas players can be named, with the remaining eight places available to home-grown members of the squad.

However, as Arsenal allowed Bernd Leno, Lucas Torreira, Nuno Tavares, Pablo Mari, Runar Alex Runarsson and Alexandre Lacazette to leave one way or another before deadline day, it means they only have 13 overseas players, which in turn increases the slots available to home-grown members of the squad.
