Benik Afobe delighted with preseason chance at Arsenal

Benik Afobe is delighted with his progress in preseason at Arsenal.

The striker was selected in Arsène Wenger's squad for the trip to Germany and made his first appearance at senior level when he came on as an injury-time substitute against Cologne at the weekend.

"Since I was six years old, my dream has always been to play for Arsenal's first team and hopefully that dream can come true," he told Arsenal.com.

"It is really good experience because it is my first time away with the first team. Hopefully I will get another chance."
