Arsenal faces a setback as William Saliba is sidelined from the Liverpool match due to an injury sustained barely moments into the Anfield contest
Arsenal's injury concerns have mounted ahead of the upcoming international break, with several key players set to miss out due to various knocks and problems.
William Saliba, the young French defender, is the latest casualty. He injured his ankle during the warm-up before the Liverpool match and had to be substituted early in the game due to discomfort. Initial assessments suggest that he may be sidelined for up to a month, although an exact return date is not yet confirmed. It now seems unlikely that Saliba will join the France squad during the upcoming international break. The medical staff will closely monitor his progress to determine his condition.
Martin Odegaard, the Norwegian playmaker, started the game on the bench last week against Leeds due to a shoulder injury sustained in the previous match. No further information about his condition or the recovery timeline was provided.
Bukayo Saka is another notable absentee. The England international is missing the Premier League clash against the champions due to a hamstring injury sustained last week. The extent of his injury and the expected recovery period are yet to be disclosed.
In a positive note, Mosquera made his Gunners debut against Leeds last week, replacing Saliba in the centre-back role. His performance will likely be crucial as Arsenal navigate their injury-hit period.
Unfortunately, Chelsea's Kai Havertz has been ruled out for a prolonged period due to a knee problem. The German international will miss out on international duty with Germany, adding to Arsenal's injury woes.
Arsenal will hope for a swift recovery for their injured players as they look to maintain their momentum in the Premier League. The upcoming fixtures promise to be challenging, and Mikel Arteta will need to rely on his squad's depth to navigate through these tough times.
