In 2019, Mesut Oezil was dropped from the Arsenal squad because of his actions in supporting Uighur Muslims who are oppressed in China. Especially for Oleksandr Zinchenko, he is known to have received protests from netizens because Israel’s actions were not much different from Russia’s war against Ukraine, the player’s country.

is Arsenal will take a stand for these two players?
