Arteta has provided injury updates on Trossard and Calafiori ahead of clash with Leverkusen

Arsenal had a terrible day at the office against Mansfield despite having two noteworthy wins this season. William Saliba, Ben White, and Martin Ødegaard were once again sidelined by chronic illnesses, while the Gunners lost Leandro Trossard and Riccardo Calafiori to injury during the FA Cup adventure.

The two were scheduled to start Tuesday’s Champions League game against Bayer Leverkusen, but they will now have to wait nervously for any possible sideline time. Positively, Mikel Merino was the only longer-term absentee as Max Dowman recovered from injury and played well in the FA Cup.

William Saliba is still out with an ankle injury, so it is unclear if he will play against Bayer Leverkusen. After being hauled out of the Gunners’ triumph against Brighton on Wednesday night when Cristhian Mosquera joined Gabriel in the defence, the Frenchman missed Saturday’s trip to Mansfield.

Mikel Arteta provides worrying Arsenal injury update

Mikel Merino, a talented midfielder, has been away for a long time, and Ben White is also not present. Myles Lewis-Skelly will be eligible to play against Leverkusen in Germany next week despite being suspended for the trip to Mansfield.

Leverkusen twice, Everton (H), and Manchester City in the Carabao Cup final at Wembley are the remaining four games the Premier League leaders must play before the end-of-month international break.

They will find out who their FA Cup quarter-final opponents are in Monday’s live draw on TNT Sports, and their quadruple push is still very much alive. They will follow Mikel Arteta every step of the way, delving deeply into the most important subjects each week. Prior to each match, they will also talk about sentimental flashbacks. As the Gunners aim to win trophies this season under Arteta, it’s a fantastic moment to be an Arsenal supporter.
