Bukayo Saka and Declan Rice picked up injuries in the north London derby draw with Tottenham last weekend.
Mikel Arteta has revealed he could be without as many as eight first-team players when Arsenal travel to face Bournemouth on Saturday.
The PA news agency understands Saka has a good chance of being involved at the Vitality Stadium but Arteta could have a number of selection headaches.“They are all in the same pool,” he said of the right players who are doubtful.“Are they fit enough? Have they done enough to be able to be selected tomorrow and that’s the question mark.
Bournemouth appointed Andoni Iraola as their new head coach in the summer, the 41-year-old having played in the same childhood team as Arteta as they grew up together in the Basque Country.
