Many Arsenal players are away on international duty right now, meaning young players like Taylor Foran are around Mikel Arteta’s squad.
The second international break of the season sees the likes of Kieran Tierney, Thomas Partey, Bukayo Saka and Martin Odegaard head off with their countries.
Not many senior players get left behind at Arsenal, but Areta still needs to hold training session and play behind-closed-doors games.
On Wednesday, it seems that Arsenal played a behind-closed-doors friendly against Queens Park Rangers.
With limited first-team players available, this was a golden chance for Arsenal’s young prospects to impress Arteta.
Foran features in Arsenal side
One of the players to feature in the Gunners team on Wednesday appears to be Foran.
The teenager took to Instagram on Wednesday to post a photo of his Arsenal shirt with Foran 27 on the back.
The number 27 isn’t taken in the Arsenal squad right now. Konstantinos Mavropanos has the number 27, but is out on loan at Stuttgart.
Foran, 17, is a centre back who features regularly for Arsenal at Under-18 level.
It seems that Arsenal see a big future for the defender, and that’s why he has been involved around the first team this week.
Football.London claim the game ended in a 3-2 win for Arsenal, with Foran seemingly playing a part.
