The boys are back in training!

Marquinhos in training

Today saw our men's first-team squad reassemble at London Colney as they begin their preparations for the return of the Premier League next month.

While 10 of the squad are currently at the World Cup, Mikel Arteta put the remainder through their paces ahead of a number of friendlies between now and Boxing Day's game against West Ham United.

Next week will see us head to Dubai for some warm weather training, as well as the chance to compete against Lyon and AC Milan in the Dubai Super Cup.

Following that, we'll host Juventus at Emirates Stadium on Saturday, December 17 (more information, including how to buy tickets) in our final warm-up game, before the competitive action gets underway the following week.

Take a look at the best images from the first session back in our gallery below:
