The two defenders were not even named on the bench at the Emirates.
Summer signing Riccardo Calafiori is yet to feature for Arsenal in pre-season Mikel Arteta says Arsenal are ‘slowly’ easing Riccardo Calafiori into life at the club, which is why the defender was absent for the side’s pre-season victory over Bayer Leverkusen. Arsenal put an end to weeks of speculation with official confirmation of Calafiori’s €50m arrival from Serie A outfit Bologna last month.
’ The Arsenal head coach added: ‘In regards to Riccardo, so much has happened to him in one week. He’s come in to a new environment, completely different methodology, different training, and are managing him. ‘We want to do it slowly to get him in the best possible way so hopefully on Sunday he will be available to play some minutes.
