Arsenal players are spending time with their families after suffering defeat on the last day of the Premier League earlier this month.
The Gunners players have gone out to various spots across the world to unwind following a hectic season that saw them finish second in England’s top league.
Bukayo Saka, Declan Rice, and Aaron Ramsdale are spending their time in England before joining the England squad for the European Championships.
Meanwhile, Thomas Partey proposed to his partner Janine Mackson on the beach, while David Raya spent his vacation in the Maldives.
Others are also spending time in the sun. Kai Havertz and skipper Martin Odegaard flew away from the UK for a little break, and they were accompanied by their partners.

The England midfielder was featured in a recent edition of Mens Health UK, where he discussed England’s chances in Germany this summer.
Speaking to the magazine, he said: “With the team we have, the players we have, and everyone in form and playing well, you need to believe in yourself to win.” I believe this is our chance; the time has come.
‘What excuses can you offer? We have a terrific manager and great personnel behind the scenes, and they are a great bunch to travel with. “We can do something really special this summer.”
