Young Gunners off to New Bucks Head
Tuesday 20th October 2009, 1:45PM BST.
Samir Nasri will be the star draw when Arsenal’s reserves take on Wolves at AFC Telford United’s New Bucks Head tonight (7pm).
Nasri broke his leg during a pre-season training session in Austria in July, but has been given the all-clear to launch his comeback in Shropshire.
Polish goalkeeper Lukasz Fabianski will also line up for the Gunners in the Barclays Premier Reserve League South clash this evening.
Fabianski has not played since August after undergoing surgery to cure a knee problem.
The rest of Arsenal’s side will largely be made up of youngsters, with the first team squad in Holland for a Champions League group clash at AZ Alkmaar tonight.
But boss Arsene Wenger confirmed the presence of his two international big guns, declaring: “The good news is that Samir Nasri will be playing at Wolves with the reserves and Lukasz Fabianski will too.”
Admission tonight is £4 for adults and £1 for concessions, with Wolves season ticket holders getting in free. The gates will open at 6pm.
