The Colombian stopper is now the designated dressing room disc jockey.

DJ Ospina may not be able to take 35-year-old Petr Cech’s place between the Gunners’ posts.

But he can console himself by being Giroud’s replacement as the tune selector before the Gunners run out on the pitch.

“Olivier [Giroud] used to be in charge of the selection but now that he’s gone to Chelsea,” he told the official Arsenal website.

“Sometimes I select the music, sometimes it’s [Shkodran] Mustafi.

“We try to create a happy mood before we walk on to the pitch.

“Recently we have been listening to a lot of J Balvin, a Colombian artist who produces really good music – it just makes us smile.

“Afterwards, different people play all sorts of music but beforehand it’s always Reggaeton.”

Reggaeton originated in Puerto Rico during the late 1990s and is influenced by hip hop and Latin American and Caribbean music.

Boss Arsene Wenger has stated that Ospina will start today’s Carabao Cup final against Manchester City.
