Unai Emery confirmed that Aaron Ramsey had suffered a muscular injury on Thursday night against Napoli and the midfielder could be out for several weeks.
“Normally it is going to be some weeks out of the team,” said the Arsenal manager. “He was in a very good moment. We have other players who have an opportunity also. We need all the players. This is something that means we need to use rotation and find the performances.”
When asked if the Welshman had played his final game for the Gunners, Emery replied, “I don’t know.”
As you already know, Ramsey has agreed pre-contractual terms with Juventus and is set to leave the Emirates this July. With this injury, he might miss the rest of the 2018/19 campaign since there are only a few weeks left to play for.
Arsenal qualified for the Europa League Semi-finals after going past Napoli 0-1 last night. Emery further added in his post-match interview, “I grew up a lot in this competition and I think the Europa League gives us a big opportunity, when we cannot play in the Champions League, to do something important.
“It’s one title but it gives us the opportunity to play in the Champions League next year when our domestic league has a lot of teams also trying to take this ticket. The Europa League is for us now, with the Premier League, an important competition.
“I think Napoli, with their supporters, showed us they wanted to do something important here. We won because we worked really well and made a big performance. We showed good personality to play with our idea. We wanted to keep more of the ball but we didn’t do all I wanted.
“In the positional play, we were very good and doing good pressing against them because they want to build up possession with combinations. We did big pressure against them and were in their box a lot of moments with the possibility to score.”
