After a five-week break, a host of Arsenal first team stars resumed training at their training base at London Colney.

Iwobi was however not in training as he has been given extra holidays before resuming training.

The Super Eagles player was given extra days off because he was on international duties immediately after last season.

He hit Super Eagles camp in France on Monday, May 29 immediately after lifting the FA Cup following Arsenal’s 2-1 victory over Chelsea in the final.

Iwobi played in Super Eagles 3-0 win over Togo in a June 1 friendly game and their shocking 2-0 home loss to South Africa in a 2019 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifiers.

With his international engagements after last season Iwobi and the likes of Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, Aaron Ramsey, Granit Xhaka and Olivier Giroud were not in training on Tuesday.
