Arsenal are dealing with new injury concerns over some key players for the second international break in a row.
The Gunners previously saw influential captain Martin Odegaard ruled out during the September internationals, with Bukayo Saka now handing them a real scare after limping out of England’s disastrous 2-1 Nations League defeat by Greece at Wembley.
Kai Havertz and Thomas Partey had already withdrawn from international duty this week, with several other Arsenal injury issues already lingering to offer manager Mikel Arteta another unwelcome headache as they bid to keep the early stages of their latest Premier League title bid on track away at Bournemouth next weekend.
That trip to the south coast is followed by some huge games across all competitions in what is a busy end to October for Arsenal, who also host Shakhtar Donetsk in their third assignment in the new-look Champions League in addition to the small matter of an Emirates Stadium showdown with top-flight pacesetters Liverpool and a Carabao Cup last-16 contest against Preston.
Here is the latest Arsenal injury update, featuring a mix of new concerns and a flurry of players who could be back very soon.
