Emile Smith Rowe makes key Arsenal pre-season tour decision to impress Mikel Arteta

Emile Smith Rowe will join up with the Arsenal squad in the United States as he seeks to build on the momentum from his Under-21 Euro success with England, football.london understands.

The 22-year-old had a superb tournament in Georgia, scoring twice and grabbing an assist en route to the Young Lions' victory. Far from resting on his laurels though, Smith Rowe is now determined to use his impressive displays at international level to kickstart his Arsenal career, rather than having a longer holiday after his exertions.

After being the Gunners' second highest goalscorer in his first full senior season with the club, the Hale Ender went on to have a difficult campaign last time out. He was ruled out for five months due to a groin injury that had been causing him pain for years, and suffered a few setbacks on his road to recovery which elongated his absence further.
