Mikel Arteta and Arsenal have had an international break to forget with several key players picking up injuries
Martin Zubimendi is the latest Arsenal player to become an injury concern
It’s been an international window to forget for Mikel Arteta and Arsenal, with 12 players now doubts for their return to domestic action. Martin Zubimendi is the latest to pull out from his respective international side in the last few days, in what is a major concern for the Gunners.
Another recent injury blow, came when Piero Hincapie withdrew from the Ecuador squad ahead of Tuesday night’s clash against the Netherlands. The Gunners star was part of La Tri’s draw with Morocco on Friday evening, where he was replaced by Pervis Estupiñán in the final quarter of an hour.
The 24-year-old has joined a long list of players to have been recalled from international duty by Arsenal this month.
Noni Madueke, Declan Rice and Bukayo Saka all pulled out of the England squad and returned to Arsenal for medical treatment, while Gabriel Magalhaes, William Saliba, Eberechi Eze, Leandro Trossard, and Jurrien Timber all pulled out of their respective international squads.
