Latest Arsenal injury news as five star set to miss Fulham with new concerns and Martin Odegaard update
Arsenal news: The Gunners have a growing list of injury worries ahead of a key game against Fulham on Sunday.
Mikel Arteta is hoping that his side can recover from a set of poorly timed illness concerns and injury setbacks as Arsenal prepare for a short trip to Fulham.
The Gunners were in action in midweek against Sporting CP but were still without several key players.
An illness bug that has seemingly swept across the country kept out Martin Odegaard and Kieran Tierney for the Europa League last-16 first leg in Portugal.
Meanwhile other short-term knocks have kept out a group of others looking for a swift return.
It comes at a bad time for Arteta, who is trying to balance his squad between a title race and going deep into Europe with the prospect of a first continental title.
With one eye also on the return leg on Thursday, there are still plenty of concerns ahead of playing the Cottagers.
Even the captain isn't a sure-fire to come back in with Arteta saying, "In other moments we had total control of the game and we lost a little bit of threat today, especially with the four players we are missing in our frontline (Odegaard, Jesus, Trossard and Nketiah)." He also added: "I hope so.
Martin was feeling better, then became a little worse so we’ll see after training today
