Nigerian Duo Make Arsenal Champions League Roster

English Premier League club Arsenal have announced their roster for the group stage of the Champions League.

The Gunners have been drawn alongside Paris Saint-Germain, Basel and Ludogorets Razgrad in Group A of the competition.

Nigeria international Alex Iwobi and Chuba Akpom, who have been on the books of Arsenal for more than ten years, were included in the club’s B list.

A player may be registered on List B if he is born on, or after, 1 January 1995 and has been eligible to play for the club concerned for any uninterrupted period of two years since his 15th birthday.

Iwobi has recorded two appearances to date in the Champions League while fellow Hale End Academy product Akpom has not featured.
