Arsenal have today announced the squad that will be attending the club's pre-season tour of the US.
The squad flew out today and will fly to Baltimore, Maryland.
They will face Everton at the M&T Bank Stadium in a game that kicks off at midnight Saturday, UK time.
Arsenal then fly to Orlando, Florida the following day.

They face MLS side Orlando City on 20th July, which kicks off at 12:30am UK time.
The last game of the tour is against London rivals Chelsea, on July 23rd, at 1am UK time.
Surrounding the games will be intense training sessions, some in front of local Arsenal fans.
An earlier report from Times Sport had suggested Bernd Leno, Thomas Partey and Folarin Balogun would miss out.
Leno is reportedly close to a £10m move to Fulham.
Balogun has not been linked away from the club, but it is widely acknowledged he will depart the club on loan.
However, all three players have been included in the squad.
Other players with uncertain futures have been included in the squad also.
Lucas Torreira, Hector Bellerin, Ainsley Maitland Niles and Pablo Mari all boarded the plane despite rumours of departures looming.
17-year-old Ruell Waters is the only youth team member to take the trip, after his great first half display against 1. FC Nurnberg last week.
This has come as a surprise to some, as young players such as Charlie Patino, Omari Hutchinson, Marcelo Flores, Lino Sousa, Jack Henry-Francis and Salah Oulad M'Hand had been expected to join the squad.
Arsenal's squad in full:
Goalkeepers: Aaron Ramsdale, Bernd Leno, Matt Turner, Arthur Okonkwo, Alex Runarsson
Defenders: Kieran Tierney, Nuno Tavares, Gabriel, Pablo Mari, Ben White, Rob Holding, William Saliba, Hector Bellerin, Cedric Soares, Takehiro Tomiyasu, Reuell Walters
