Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has provided an injury update on Oleksandr Zinchenko ahead of the club’s game with Brighton.
The Gunners are currently sitting in second place in the Premier League table, one point behind the leaders, Manchester City. They keep their title win hopes tight heading to a decisive game with Roberto de Zerbi’s side.
The two teams are set to face each other on Sunday, May 14. Ahead of the game, Arteta met the media to share the latest team news.
According to the latest reports, Zinchenko is set to miss the rest of the season due to fitness issues. However, Arteta has now refused to rule out the possibility of welcoming the defender back to the first team earlier than expected.
The Gunners’ boss simply said “no” as he didn’t confirm that the Ukraine international will be out for the season.
