Arsenal are hosting a charity legends match against AC Milan today at Emirates Stadium to benefit The Arsenal Foundation. Here are all the details you need to follow along and watch greats from days gone by.

Interested to know who’s playing? Well, here you go:

With Arsène Wenger at the helm, alongside assistant coach Pat Rice, the Arsenal Legends squad is as follows:

Unfortunately, Henry and Bergkamp are unavailable due to other commitments. Speaking to Arsenal dot com, Henry said:

“Sadly I will be unable to play in the Arsenal legends game due to my new commitments with the Belgium national team. I was looking forward to being reunited with the Arsenal fans, old friends and of course helping raise money for a worthwhile cause. I wish the boys every success and hope the team can secure a victory in my absence!”

Meanwhile, Milan are bringing along some greats of their own:

Milan Glorie’s travelling squad, managed by Fabio Capello, will be as follows:
