Passenger joins Arsenal stars on a night to inspire

Arsenal players and musical talent got together for the Arsenal Foundation night at The Emirates on Thursday night.

Aaron Ramsey, Mesut Ozil, Alexis Sanchez and Santi Cazorla were joined by British folk-rock artist Michael Rosenberg, aka Passenger, in a bid to raise money for 'Save the Children UK' on a 'Night To Inspire'.

The Arsenal Foundation raised £1million for Save the Children which prompted proud words from manager Arsene Wenger who was also present at the glittering event.

"We are proud to support Save the Children's fantastic work around the world," said Wenger.

"I am very pleased we have been able to reach this £1 million milestone together and I would like to especially thank the players and our supporters for their generosity in helping to make this happen."
