Arsenal have confirmed that Joe Willock, Reiss Nelson, Emile Smith Rowe, Matt Macey and Eddie Nketiah are part of the first-team squad.

However, winger Gabriel Martinelli, who joined from Ituano this summer, is in the U23 squad.

Martinelli, who made his competitive debut against Newcastle United last weekend, has been given the number 35 shirt for this season.

It is anticipated that the Brazilian will still be heavily involved with the first-team this season.

Willock and Nelson both started against Newcastle, while Macey and Smith Rowe have also been promoted along with Nketiah, who is on loan at Leeds United.
