Arsenal will have new captain

Arsenal will have a new captain, Goal reported.

Unai Emery has admitted that Arsenal captain Laurent Koscielny could "possibly" leave Arsenal this summer.

"I want one English player in these five captains. Last year (Granit) Xhaka, Mesut (Ozil) and Nacho (Monreal) were working as captains. But after Aaron Ramsey and Petr Cech left - and possibly Laurent Koscielny - I will want more. An English player who grew up in our academy can understand the English spirit and Arsenal values. We lost some players with big experience and a long time in England and Arsenal like Cech and Ramsey.

Arsenal will begin the new season facing Newcastle.
