Meanwhile, recall Naija News earlier reported that Arsenal has announced Granit Xhaka has been dropped as the club captain for its senior team.

This was confirmed during a press conference by Arsenal manager, Unai Emery on Tuesday. He also revealed that a new captain, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang will now take over.

Recall Xhaka threw his arms up in the air and cupped his ears after his substitution was greeted by boos during their 2-2 draw with Crystal Palace.
