Mikel Arteta Updates on Arsenal Injuries Before Forest Match
Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has given an injury update on players Piero Hincapie, Martin Zubimendi, and Christos Tzolis ahead of the Premier League match against Nottingham Forest. Hincapie sustained an ankle injury during training after Arsenal's 2-1 victory over Leeds United and was carried off the pitch by Illan Meslier.
He missed the subsequent 3-0 Champions League win against Lille. Arteta anticipates that Hincapie will recover in one to two weeks but is unlikely to play against Forest.
Arteta stated, “Piero is evolving really well as well; knowing his character and the way he pushes everybody, it’s not going to take long, I don’t think, probably another week or two.” Zubimendi also suffered an ankle injury during the same training session and missed the Lille match. However, he could potentially return for the Forest game if he shows sufficient improvement before Sunday.
Arteta mentioned, “Zubi is doing much better; we have another session tomorrow, let’s see how he evolves.”.
