Mikel Arteta calls up 'powerful' 6ft 5in talent for Arsenal training ahead of Bayern Munich |
Arsenal must regroup quickly after their disappointing defeat in the Premier League last time out.
The Gunners were hoping to get back to the top of the table on Sunday, and they also received a boost from Liverpool's defeat early in the day.
However, Arsenal suffered the same fate, losing to Aston Villa at the Emirates Stadium and losing ground in the title race.
The race is not over yet and there could still be more twists and turns. Meanwhile, the Gunners must also focus on the Champions League.
Mikel Arteta's charges will take on Bayern Munich in Wednesday's quarter-final second leg at the Allianz Arena.
And with Thomas Tuchel's charges relinquishing the Bundesliga title, they will be desperate to keep their Champions League hopes alive.

Arteta has been putting his players through their paces in training ahead of Wednesday's game. And one of Hale End's best talents was spotted at the shoot.
The player in question is Taylor Foran, who plays as a centre-back for Arsenal's under-21 team.
Who is Arsenal defender Taylor Foran?
Foran, now 20, signed for Arsenal in May 2012, when he was just nine years old.
The 6ft 5in powerhouse rose through the ranks in the academy and signed his first professional contract in July 2022.
Arsenal's official website has described Foran as a “powerful” talent, while Gunners youth team expert Jeorge Bird has deemed him a “tall defender with impressive leadership qualities”.
He is yet to make his full Arsenal debut but Arteta appears to rate him highly and hopefully he can get some senior minutes under his belt in the coming weeks.
