Event details:
NAME: Arsenal – Milan
DATE: 23 Jul 2025
TIME: 11:30 UTC
VENUE: National Stadium, Kallang, Singapore
Arsenal vs AC Milan is scheduled for a 7.30pm kick-off local time which is 12.30pm BST in the UK on Wednesday, July 23, 2025.
Mikel Arteta has named a 30-man squad for the Asia tour and could hand debuts to summer signings Kepa Arrizabalaga, Martin Zubimendi and Christian Norgaard.
Milan have ex-Chelsea trio Fikayo Tomori, Ruben Loftus-Cheek and Christian Pulisic in their ranks along with former Arsenal youth star Yunus Musah. Rafael Leao has travelled to Singapore.
However, Luka Modric has not made the trip after completing his free transfer from Real Madrid. This is because the experienced midfielder is owed time off after competing in the Club World Cup.
The result is never that important in these early pre-season games. The main focus is player fitness and, in Arsenal’s case, integrating their new signings.
That said, Arteta does tend to treat every game with huge importance so he will be keen to ensure his side begin their Asia pre-season tour on a positive note.
Given the quality of players on show from both teams, it should be an entertaining game at the National Stadium with the Gunners slightly edging it.
In terms of competitive meetings between the two sides, Arsenal certainly have the edge. The most recent showdown was the Europa League quarter-final in the 2017/18 season where the Gunners ran out 5-2 winners on aggregate.
Arsenal begin their preparations for the new campaign with a pre-season friendly against AC Milan this week.
The Gunners, who are expected to mount a Premier League title challenge next season, are in Asia this summer for a three-game tour and first up is a return to Singapore for a showdown with the Italian giants.
Mikel Arteta’s side have been extremely busy in the summer transfer window thus far which means fans in Singapore could see three of the four new recruits in action as well as a number of talented youngsters.
Meanwhile somewhat of a rebuild at Milan is taking place. Max Allegri is back in charge after the club failed to qualify for Europe and he has overseen the sale of Theo Hernandez to Al Hilal.
It’s a first meeting between the two sides since a friendly in Dubai back in December 2022 when the two teams were preparing to resume their respective league campaigns following the winter World Cup.
