Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has admitted he remains âuncertainâ over David Raya âs fitness ahead of Sundayâs crucial Premier League showdown against Manchester City, while confirming that Ben White will miss the fixture.
The Gunners, locked in a fierce title race with Liverpool, have struggled to maintain their consistency this season despite suffering only two league defeats. With injuries and suspensions affecting squad depth, Arsenal will be eager to secure a statement victory over City to bolster their title challenge.
Raya, who was unavailable for Arsenalâs midweek win, travelled with the squad but was ultimately not deemed fit enough to feature on the bench. Teenager Jack Porter was named as the backup goalkeeper instead. However, there is no concern over a long-term absence, and expectations remain that the Spanish shot-stopper will be available for the upcoming league fixtures.
