Arsenal are gearing up for the 2025/26 Premier League season with a high-intensity summer training camp in Spain, as confirmed by manager Mikel Arteta.

The decision, driven by player demand, reflects the squad’s commitment to maintaining peak performance in a competitive campaign.

Arteta emphasised the need for rigorous preparation, stating, “It is impossible to pass 4, 5, 6 weeks on a sunbed… and then play 65 matches,” as reported by @JamesOlley on X on May 16, 2025.

This move underscores Arsenal’s ambition to surpass their three in a row second-place finishes and challenge for the Premier League title.

The camp, likely to be held in a warm-weather location like Marbella, will focus on tactical drills, fitness, and team cohesion, mirroring the club’s Hale End academy philosophy.

Spain’s excellent facilities and favorable climate make it an ideal destination, as seen in previous pre-season camps. Recent reports highlight the squad’s proactive approach, with players pushing for an early start to pre-season preparations.

The camp will also prepare Arsenal for their confirmed U.S. friendlies against Manchester United, Liverpool, and Bournemouth.

This strategic retreat comes as Arsenal aim to integrate potential new signings, with rumors swirling around targets like Alexander Isak and Martin Zubimendi.

The camp offers Arteta a chance to embed his tactical vision, particularly after a record-breaking 2024/25 season where Arsenal scored 91 Premier League goals, their highest since 1952/53.

However, financial constraints and a packed transfer window may limit squad overhaul, making the camp crucial for refining existing talent. Fans are buzzing with excitement, hoping this preparation will propel Arsenal to glory in the 2025/26 season.
