Arsenal Talent Iwobi Poised To Start Against Iheanacho's Leicester, Wenger Hints
Published: August 09, 2017.png)
Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has strongly hinted that the likes of Alex Iwobi and Bellerín will start Friday night's Premier League opener between the Gunners and Leicester City at the Emirates Stadium.
Speaking at a press conference this morning, the Frenchman stated that he will likely field the players that racked up the most minutes in pre-season matches.
''I have players coming back who have not played, like Mustafi. Alexis will not be available for example, so I cannot go into the game with too many uncertainties,'' said Wenger.
''I can take a gamble on one, maybe maximum two, but I focus more on the players who had the right number of competitive minutes in recent weeks.''
Three Nigeria internationals are in line to feature on Friday, as Kelechi Iheanacho and Ahmed Musa are expected to be named in the Leicester City squad for the trip to the English capital.
