Arsenal’s Premier League clash with Manchester City has been postponed, while the club’s Europa League group game against PSV Eindhoven has been rescheduled for Thursday, October 20.
This was made known via separate statements issued by UEFA and the Premier League on Wednesday.
Arsenal’s original game against PSV Eindhoven, which was due to be played at the Emirates on Thursday, was postponed due to a lack of available police in London following the death of Queen Elizabeth II.
A UEFA statement read: “UEFA today announced that the UEFA Europa League tie between Arsenal FC and PSV Eindhoven, originally scheduled to be played on Thursday 15 September, will now be played on Thursday 20 October.
