Barclays English Premier League side, Arsenal will face Nigeria Premier League (NPL) champions, Dolphins when the London club visit Nigeria in July 2012.
Arsene Wenger’s Gunners are due in Nigeria for a playing tour ahead of the start of the 2012/2013 EPL season.
SuperSport.com understands that the Londoners are billed to play against several Nigerian clubs while in the country.
General Manager of the club, Dumbor Awanem, said: “A lot of other states are trying to lure the Arsenal team to their states but they have said they want to see a club that can actually give them stiff opposition and Dolphins fit that bill.
“With this I can confirm to you that Arsenal will come to Port Harcourt to play against Dolphins’ in the summer.”
Dolphins are currently representing Nigeria in the Caf Champions League and will face Cameroun’s Cotonsport in the next round of the competition.
