Full list of Arsenal players at Fifa World Cup Qatar 2022

The Gunners will be missing 10 familiar faces from their training camp over the World Cup period, with those chosen making up part of seven different squads in Qatar. They have the 15th-most players represented by a sole club at the tournament, ranking fifth amongst Premier League sides.

Only Manchester City, Manchester United, Chelsea and north London neighbours Tottenham are losing more players over the break, and amongst the sides currently vying for the title, only Newcastle's squad is more intact than the Gunners.

Arsenal's 10 absentees isn't quite a starting XI, but they do make up several components of the team's spine, which has been so impressive this season. While captain and top-scorer Martin Odegaard remains in the Gunners' camp, his runner-up in the scoring department, Gabriel Jesus, was chosen in the Brazil squad many tipped as favourites to go all the way in Qatar. However, the Arsenal striker sustained a knee injury during the defeat to Cameroon in the final group match that ended his World Cup.

Jesus' fellow vice-captain Granit Xhaka was also in the Middle East, leading a Switzerland side sharing Brazil's group, while England's efforts were bolstered by the inclusion of regular Arsenal starters Ben White, Bukayo Saka and Aaron Ramsdale.
