With Arsenal’s 2024/25 campaign at an end, most of the squad can now begin their holidays. But 13 senior players will have to wait a little before starting their summer break, after receiving call-ups from their countries for the June international fixtures.
Arsenal’s David Raya and Mikel Merino (Spain), Gabriel Martinelli (Brazil), Kieran Tierney (Scotland), Declan Rice, Bukayo Saka, and Myles Lewis-Skelly (England), Jakub Kiwior (Poland), Oleksandr Zinchenko (Ukraine), Martin Odegaard (Norway), and Leandro Trossard (Belgium) have all been called up.
Gunners loanees Karl Hein (Estonia) and Nuno Tavares (Portugal) have also made their countries’ squad lists. For what it’s worth, Martin Zubimendi has been called up by Spain, as Arsenal try to complete a deal to sign him.

Ben White missed out for England due to the imminent birth of his first child and concerns that he’s still not 100% fit, whilst Thomas Partey was excluded to give him a break.
Gabriel Jesus, Gabriel Magalhaes, William Saliba, Jurrien Timber, Takehiro Tomiyasu, and Riccardo Calafiori all remain injured, and Kai Havertz was presumably left out due to only recently returning from injury. Ethan Nwaneri will be with the England u21s.
