Arteta Faces Selection Dilemma as Arsenal Stars Raya, White, and Timber Battle Injuries
Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta is facing a deepening injury crisis ahead of their upcoming Premier League fixture against Leicester City.
While the Gunners secured a convincing 5-1 win over Bolton in the Carabao Cup, there are concerns about the fitness of key players.
Goalkeeper David Raya, who missed the match due to a muscular injury, remains uncertain for the Leicester game. Arteta expressed uncertainty about Raya’s availability, with the injury casting doubt over his participation.
In Raya’s absence, Neto, who is cup-tied, may have to step in for the Premier League match, though 16-year-old Jack Porter filled in for the Carabao Cup game.
Additionally, Arsenal are sweating on the fitness of defenders Ben White and Jurrien Timber, both of whom are reported to be in doubt for the weekend’s game.
While Leicester have struggled this season, currently being one of six teams yet to secure a win, Arteta will be hoping his injured players can recover in time.
The next few days in training will be crucial to determine if any of the sidelined stars can make the squad, as their absence could be problematic for Arsenal’s continued form.
