Saliba, who signed for us last summer before returning on loan to Saint-Etienne, recently linked up with Mikel Arteta’s group at Arsenal Training Centre.
The French defender joined the Gunners for £27m in last summer’s transfer window but was immediately loaned back to Ligue 1 outfit Saint-Etienne for the 2019/20 season to continue his development.
Having missed out on a French Cup final appearance at the end of last month, the teenager has been training at London Colney for the past week.
He was spotted by some eagle-eyed Arsenal fans in the build-up to the FA Cup final win over Chelsea – where he was involved in the post-match celebrations with Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Alexandre Lacazette.
With the 2019/20 season now complete for the north London outfit, attentions are turning towards the new campaign which gets underway later this month with a Community Shield clash against Liverpool.
Below are some pictures of Saliba during training:
