A Premier League Captain Was Spotted In The Cockpit Of An Emirates Plane While Passing Through Dubai

Arsenal FC and Germany World Cup winner, Per Mertesacker is seen here in the cockpit of an Emirates 777 as his team took a pit spot while passing through Dubai. 

Arsenal is sponsored by Emirates, and they were on the way to Australia for a pre-season tour. 

The players had some time to pose for photographs during their stopover

And looked like they had a total hoot 

The team received a great welcome in Sydney

Great welcome from the #Arsenal fans who met the squad at Sydney Airport this morning. #afc #preseason pic.twitter.com/TLk9xfh3Oh
