EPL: Arsenal’s injury woes deepen ahead of Forest clash

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta may face a selection headache ahead of this weekend’s Premier League fixture against Nottingham Forest, as Leandro Trossard is a potential absentee due to injury concerns.  

The 29-year-old attacker was forced off during Belgium’s UEFA Nations League match against Israel on Sunday.

Trossard, who started the game, was replaced in the 37th minute by Johan Bakayoko after appearing to struggle physically while leaving the pitch.

Trossard has been a key contributor for Arsenal this season, featuring in 15 matches and scoring twice. His potential absence would add to Arteta’s injury woes, as the Gunners have already endured a string of setbacks affecting their squad depth.

A long-term injury to Trossard could disrupt Arsenal’s momentum as they navigate a demanding schedule, with Arteta likely weighing his options should the versatile midfielder be sidelined. Further updates on Trossard’s condition are expected in the coming days.
