Takehiro Tomiyasu sustained an injury in the Wolves clash.
The Arsenal defender was forced off in their 2-1 win over Wolves on Saturday night.
The Japanese full-back limped out in the 79th minute and was the second consecutive match he failed to stay on for 90 minutes.
Mikel Arteta has high praises for the defender and started him in the last four games of the campaign.
His versatility has proven to be a key asset for manager Mikel Arteta months after considering selling the defender in the summer window.
Arteta said: “They (medical team) have to check him now. He was feeling a bit uncomfortable so we had to take him out.
“I don’t know (if it was his calf), he felt something, I don’t know if it was fatigue, we decided to change straight away with him, we didn’t want to take any risk. Let’s assess how he is.”
According to several reports, Arsenal are expected to offer the Japan international a new contract in the coming weeks.
He has around 18 months left on his contract and has the option to extend his contract for a further 12 months.
Recently, Bayern Munich expressed their interest in the 25-year-old but Arsenal have no intention to sanction a departure in the winter transfer window.
