Arsenal have submitted their updated squad list for the knockout stages of the Europa League, with Konstantinos Mavropanos and Cohen Bramall being left out.

The Gunners have added January arrival Denis Suarez to their squad and, as a consequence, had to leave a non-homegrown player out, with Mavropanos the individual to make way. Bramall, meanwhile, was also left out of Arsenal’s squad for the group stages.

Uefa rules state that teams should name eight homegrown senior players in their squad, but the departure of Emiliano Martinez to Reading on loan means that Arsenal only named seven. Therefore, they had to name a reduced senior squad list of 24 players.

Mavropanos isn’t eligible for the B-List, for under-21 players, as to be included on that list players have to have been at the club for two whole years.

Arsenal’s seven homegrown players are: Hector Bellerin, Aaron Ramsey, Alex Iwobi, Deyan Iliev, Rob Holding, Danny Welbeck and Carl Jenkinson.

Ainsley Matland-Niles is on the B-list due to still being under 21 at the start of the season, while Matteo Guendouzi is on the senior list as he only joined the club last year.

With regards to young professionals, Jordan McEneff is also not included due to the length of time he has been at the club.
