Arsenal: First fixtures of 2021/22 Premier League season
Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta expects "some new faces" in the squad on the club's tour to Florida next week. Arsenal are closing in on the signings of Anderlecht midfielder Albert Sambi Lokonga and Brighton defender Ben White. Left-back Nuno Tavares joined from Benfica earlier in the window and made his first appearance for the club in the 2-2 friendly draw at Rangers on Saturday.
Arsenal came from behind twice to draw at Ibrox thanks to goals from new signing Tavares and Eddie Nketiah.
The Gunners lost 2-1 to Hibernian in their first match of their mini tour of Scotland.
Arsenal will now travel to Florida in the next few days, playing Inter Milan in the Florida Cup on July 25 before facing either Everton or Millonarios on July 28.
Speaking after the Rangers clash, Arteta outlined the club's plans and clearly hinted further new signings could be on the way soon.

Arsenal have agreed a £50million fee with Brighton to sign England defender White.
White is on holiday currently so it looks unlikely he will be travelling to USA, with a medical set to take place around July 26.
Sambi Lokonga could well be on the plane, with the signing announcement only delayed due to the club's training ground shutting down after a number of positive Covid cases.
Arsenal are also in the market for a goalkeeper, with England duo Aaron Ramsdale and Sam Johnstone both targets.
