Arsenal stars Martin Odegaard, Aaron Ramsdale and Oleksandr Zinchenko have all been spotted arriving with the matchday squad in Manchester.
The Gunners are set to face their biggest test so far with a highly-anticipated clash against Manchester United at Old Trafford kicking off this afternoon. Mikel Arteta's side have won all five of their opening Premier League fixtures
Club captain Odegaard was taken off as a precaution during the 2-1 win over Aston Villa in midweek, whilst Ramsdale also picked up a knock. Zinchenko has missed the previous two fixtures after suffering a knee injury and has not taken part in training this week.

In his press conference on Friday, manager Mikel Arteta offered an update on the injury concerns facing his unbeaten side at present. Arteta said: "Ramsdale and Odegaard have been assessed and we will see more.
"Hopefully, they’ll be available to train with the team. Zinchenko missed two games and has not been able to train with the team yet."
Odegaard now looks set to resume his role in midfield for the huge clash against United this afternoon. Ramsdale was set to miss out with American goalkeeper Matt Turner being handed his debut against Erik ten Hag's side, but the Arsenal No.1 looks as though he will retain his spot in the starting XI.
Zinchenko is all but certain to not be involved in the fixture, but his arrival with the squad in Manchester is likely to play a role in the changing room. The Ukraine international knows what it takes to beat United, having enjoyed plenty of success in doing so with his former side Manchester City, and Arteta will want to have his experience and influence mixing with the squad ahead of kick-off later today.
