SHOCKING!!! MIKEL ARTETA HAS REVEALED SIX PLAYERS MIGHT MISS MANCHESTER UNITED CLASH DUE TO INJURY
Arsenal faced a challenging game during their recent London derby against West Ham, dealing with several player injuries. Gabriel, Riccardo Calafiori, and Bukayo Saka were all substituted during the match, adding to the team’s concerns after Thomas Partey, Mikel Merino, and Myles Lewis-Skelly had already been ruled out due to injuries. However, Arsenal’s manager, Mikel Arteta, has provided some reassurance about the condition of Saka and Calafiori.
Arteta confirmed that Saka and Calafiori are not dealing with serious injuries, easing fears among fans. Despite this, Gabriel’s situation required more immediate action. The Brazilian defender started strong, even scoring the opening goal in Arsenal’s thrilling 5-2 victory over West Ham at the London Stadium on Saturday evening. However, Arteta decided to substitute him at halftime, bringing Jakub Kiwior onto the pitch in Gabriel’s place.
The match itself was filled with action, but Arsenal’s growing list of sidelined players has created some concern. Arteta’s decision to make these substitutions was likely precautionary, aiming to manage player fitness and avoid worsening any potential injuries. Gabriel’s removal, in particular, seemed to reflect Arteta’s careful approach to player health during a demanding season.
