Boss Mikel Arteta stepped in to break up the impending scrap, but it was Guendouzi who was deemed most guilty of the pair.
The Frenchman was given a verbal dressing down and dropped for the 4-0 win over Newcastle last Sunday.
But it has now been revealed Guendouzi was disciplined for a second, separate incident during the five-day trip to Dubai.
This time it was up to technical director Edu, not Arteta, to have a stern word with the former Lorient star.
The Gunners’ Invincibles hero gave Guendouzi a dressing down after he partied with his shirt off while enjoying some local music during the winter break in Dubai.
The midfielder was not punished further, but it goes to show how seriously Arsenal are taking discipline in life under Arteta.
According to the Athletic, Guendouzi’s antics were “not deemed to be grossly out of line but equally it contravened the standards now viewed as compulsory whenever employees are on Arsenal duty.”
The report claims Arsenal chiefs are happy with the way the youngster has come back from the problems.
Guendouzi has since played in the win 1-0 win away to Olympiacos and the 3-2 win over Everton on Sunday.
