Aaron Ramsey has sent a message to his Arsenal teammates ahead of the club's Europa League final against Chelsea tonight (Wednesday).
The midfielder is unable to play a part in the final due to a hamstring injury that he sustained against Napoli is the quarter-final of the competition.
The injury means that Ramsey has played his last game in Arsenal colours, after he agreed a deal with Italian side Juventus, who he will join on the expiration of his contract at the Emirates Stadium this summer.
Despite being on the sidelines, The Welshman will be in Baku to cheer on his teammates, and has sent a message via Arsenal's official social media channels before starting his journey.
"I just want to say boys, all the best," he says in the video. "We've done unbelievable to get to the final, so lets just make sure we finish the job off now and we walk off the pitch with that trophy. Fight for each other, give it absolutely everything and I'm sure we will, so I'll see you in Baku boys, all the best. Come on!"
The Arsenal squad arrived in Azerbaijan on Saturday, and have trained at the Stadium in preparation for the game against fellow Premier League team Chelsea.
The Gunners may just have an extra incentive to beat their London rivals, as a win would give them a place in the Champions League group stage for next season, where Swiss midfielder Granit Xhaka believes the club should be.
"If you see the club, we have to be in the Champions League. We didn’t play there for two years and we have to be there next season," he said ahead of the match.
