SINGAPORE - Arsenal have launched an app for their young supporters worldwide.

The Arsenal Junior Gunners app, which is free, is aimed at children aged four to 10. It is designed to educate and develop new skills in children through a number of games.

One game provides information about health and nutrition, while another hones a player's hand-eye coordination.

The app is free with no in-app purchases on both iOS and Android app stores. It also operates on a closed network so children cannot interact with strangers.

Anne-Lise Johnsen, Arsenal's youth product manager, said: "With over 36,500 Junior Gunner members and even more young Arsenal fans round the world, we are proud to launch an app targeted specifically to them.

"We hope the Junior Gunners app will elevate the experience and engagement the club has with our fans of the future, not just here in North London, but globally."
