The Arsenal players on international duty and how to watch - September 2023 | OneFootball

It's been a while since international breaks were last ruining our weekends, but they've returned with a vengeance at the start of 2023/24.

The first month of domestic action is in the books and now players are meeting up with their respective national teams ahead of Euro 2024 and 2026 World Cup qualifiers and friendlies.

For Arsenal supporters, there are 16 first-team stars to keep an eye out for during the September break. Here's how you can tune into each of their upcoming international games.

Arsenal's internationals - September 2023

England's qualifying campaign for Euro 2024 could not have gone much smoother so far. With four wins from four games, including a rare victory in Italy, the Three Lions have all but secured their place at next summer's tournament.

Declan Rice and Bukayo Saka have played prominent roles in England's campaign thus far and are both expected to start against Ukraine on 9 September. The upcoming friendly with Scotland may also present Aaron Ramsdale with a chance for minutes, while Eddie Nketiah will be hoping to earn his first cap at some point.

The three Gabis have been called up to the Brazil squad, with Gabriel Jesus, who's only just returned to full fitness following minor knee surgery, replacing Antony late on.

Brazil's qualifying campaign for the 2026 World Cup begins this month as the Selecao take on Bolivia and Peru. Jesus, Magalhaes and Martinelli will hope to earn minutes in Brazil's two games but neither fixture will be broadcasted live in the UK.

While his Arsenal career is yet to ignite, Kai Havertz has generally enjoyed individual success with his national team, even if Germany have been nowhere near their collective best since the languid attacker entered the fray.

Despite his stellar work as Bayern coach, there are doubts over Hansi Flick as leader of Die Mannschaft. This is a pretty important period for the manager, although Germany only have two friendlies this month due to their status as Euro 2024 hosts. Havertz will pit his wits against William Saliba's France and Takehiro Tomiyasu's Japan.

After missing out on the 2022 World Cup, Norway are desperate to earn their first major tournament appearance since 2000. This is a mini-Golden Generation of Norwegian talent, with Martin Odegaard one of the shining lights.

He'll be leading the way as Norway take on Jordan in a friendly before they host Georgia in a crucial Euro 2024 qualifier. Victory will stand them in good stead after Spain's slow start in Group A.

William Saliba has quickly blossomed into arguably the Premier League's best centre-half and it won't be long until he's dominating major tournaments with Les Bleus.

He barely featured at the Qatari World Cup but could be a prominent figure in France's backline next summer should he enjoy another stellar season with Arsenal. Didier Deschamps' side will be looking to make it five wins from five when they take on the Republic of Ireland in Paris before they face Germany in a high-profile friendly.

Jakub Kiwior's performances at last year's World Cup convinced Arsenal to take a plunge in the January transfer window and the Poland international has performed well when called upon.

He'll be expected to play both of Poland's upcoming September fixtures as they take on the Faroe Islands and Albania. Kiwior's side desperately need six points after their slow start to qualifying.

Current Arsenal loanee David Raya is not Spain's number one and is yet to feature in any sort of competitive action this season.

He'll likely be watching from the sidelines as Spain play two must-win Euro 2024 qualifiers against Georgia and Cyprus.

The ongoing war in Ukraine means Zinchenko's side will continue to play away from their homeland in September.

They'll first take on runaway Group A leaders England, whom they lost to at Wembley, before facing Italy in the biggest game of their campaign so far. That fixture will go a long way in determining who joins the Three Lions in Germany next summer.

After the Roberto Martinez era drew to a dull and dreary conclusion in Qatar, Belgium have been emboldened by the appointment of Domenico Tedesco as Martinez's successor.

The Red Devils have returned to their spritely best under the former RB Leipzig and Schalke boss, but they'll be without Kevin De Bruyne for their upcoming games. That could thrust greater responsibility onto Trossard, who's never quite been a leading man for the national team.

Arsenal supporters might remember third-choice goalkeeper Karl Hein for having a particularly bad game against Brighton in the Carabao Cup last season. Nevertheless, the towering 21-year-old has earned 22 caps for his national team and is Estonia's current number one.

He'll be tasked with shutting out Trossard and company this month, with Estonia also taking on Sweden.

There's nothing by way of serious competitive action for Takehiro Tomiyasu's Japan this month, with their World Cup qualifiers not continuing until November.

Nevertheless, Tomiyasu will compete in a pair of high-profile friendlies for the national team as he first duels against Havertz's Germany before Japan host Turkey on 12 September.
