Mikel Arteta\u2019s eldest son Gabriel was named on the bench as Arsenal U18s took on Ipswich Town at the Sobha Realty Training Centre this week. <\/p>\n

It was the first time that the winger, who isn\u2019t officially contracted to the club, has been involved in a matchday squad with the U18s after he trained with them recently. <\/p>\n

16-year-old Gabriel previously featured for Arsenal\u2019s U17 side against Shrewsbury Town in a friendly in December, having also played against Watford in the Premier League Cup in October. <\/p>\n

Schoolboy Hakeem Abubakar also received his first U18 callup against Ipswich and was listed amongst the substitutes. <\/p>\n

Older players such as Maalik Hashi, Abraham Owusu-Gyasi, Alex Marciniak and goalkeepers Jack Talbot and Remi Lupinski all got playing time. <\/p>\n
