Hale End Academy products Akpom and Iwobi were both named in the starting XI last Friday as Arsenal began their pre-season schedule by playing out a 1-1 draw with Lens in France.
The attacking midfielder was included in the Nigerian provisional squad for the Olympic Games but was not released by the London club.
