Eze, which was presented to the shirt No. 10, was also allowed to sunbathe in the veneration of the faithful of the Gunner’s faithful when he was shown 5-0 clearing of Leeds United in the Emirates Stadium in front of Arsenals.

After a hectic summer in the Emirates, trust among Gooverern is growing that this could be the season in which you finally win a first Premier League title since 2004.
Arsenal has ended second place in the last three campaigns, and they hope that their newcomers will finally bring them across the line after they have addressed their most important concerns about certain positions and deep cadher.
However, there are still questions of how Eze fit into the speceta side and where it will play.
In this sense, Talksport.com took a look at the two options how Eze could get into the lineup.
How is Arsenal set up in the 2025/26 season?
With two Golden Glove Awards in his trophy cabinet Premier League Golden Glove Awards, David Raya is almost sure that they were the first choice between the sticks.
In a center-back pairing, William Saliba and Gabriel Magalhaes will continue their impressive partnership, whereby Arteta is likely to be turning in full defense agencies.

Despite Riccardo Calafiori and the right-back Ben White, who began on the opening day at Manchester United, Areteta was able to return to his preferred backline from last season when Myles Lewis-Skelly and Jurien Timber were instead slipped.
Martin Zubimendi In the middle of the field, No. 6 will be in the future, although it is difficult to get into Arsenal as one of the box-to-box midfielder.
While Eze often plays as an attacking midfielder, he will probably not start Skipper Martin Odegaard.
And Club Record signing by Declan Rice is considered not to stop, which means that Eze is only in the middle of the duo when one of the two is injured to fight a form or a rotation strategy.
Eze is more on the left wing in front of Gabriel Martinelli and Leandro Trossard, who were plagued by inconsistent services last year.
Bukayo Saka will keep his place in the opposite flank, whereby Gyoker is supposed to lead the attack to silence his critics who claimed that he would not be a productive goal scorer in England’s top light.

So Arsenals is incredible depth now, Areta has the luxury of making several changes to its line -up.
The full-back will probably be shot throughout the season, while Norgaard would be more than an appropriate stand-in for Zubimendi.
A change in the middle of the field could see EZE in a free role in Odegaard in a free role, with Kai Havertz possibly playing as number 8 as soon as he has recovered from an injury.
Since Saka probably rests at certain places to keep him fresh, Madueke is the obvious candidate to replace him.
If you get in the middle of the field, Martinelli then returned to the team on the left wing, with Gyoker to keep his position above.
