Arsenal's left back Nacho Monreal will miss the beginning of the new season after a back injury ruled him out of the opening games for the Premier League season. The 27-year-old joined from Malaga in the January transfer window.
Arsenal are currently in Japan for the final leg of their Asia tour and the club are missing the left back after he damaged a disc in his back.
"Monreal has had an injection and it looks like he will miss the start of the season and of course we have lost one left back and that's a position where we are a bit exposed," said Wenger.
"Vermaelen can play there, he is injured. Monreal can play there, he is injured. At the moment we only have Kieran Gibbs who can play at left back."
