ALBERT SAMBI LOKONGA spent his downtime from Arsenal’s training camp in Dubai behind the wheel of a supercar and relaxing on a snazzy looking yacht.
Mikel Arteta jetted his squad out to Dubai for some warm weather training at the impressive Nad Al Sheba Sports Complex.
And while not being put through his paces by the Spaniard, £17m summer signing Lokonga enjoyed some winter relaxation.
The 22-year-old told took to social media in an uplifting post to his followers, telling them to ‘enjoy life’ in a heartfelt caption on Instagram.
Lokonga wrote: “We only live once. We could die tomorrow but we have to enjoy life saying to ourselves we can live until we’re 100 years old.”
He showed off snaps of himself in designer Givenchy clothing in the driver’s seat of a sleek Lamborghini supercar.
Lokonga also made himself comfortable on a plush looking yacht in front of the stunning Dubai skyline.
The midfielder couldn’t resist the opportunity for a snap of the impressive backdrop, and made sure he had a camera to hand to capture the moment.

Lokonga has played 19 times in all competitions for the Gunners so far, in what has been a solid debut season for the youngster.
Especially considering the midfield woes at Arsenal, Lokonga has probably been called upon by Arteta more than he had expected to be when arriving.
He’ll be hoping the camp at the Nad Al Sheba Sports Complex helps him kick on after the winter break.
The Gunners took advantage of the facilities at the state of the art centre, which has become the go-to venue for clubs and athletes when there’s some downtime during the hectic league campaign.
Both Manchester United and Celtic are previous visitors to the impressive complex.
