Arsenal could be without the services of left wing-back Sead Kolasinac when they take on Manchester City in the Premier League on Sunday.
The Bosnian footballer suffered a recurrence of a hip problem in the 2-1 win over Swansea City, but Arsene Wenger was hopeful that he would make the Etihad trip.
However, according to Football.London, his participation looks a major doubt after he did not participate in first-team training in the lead up to the City game.
Kolasinac made a match-defining impact for Arsenal last weekend with a goal and assist, and his absence may leave a huge void to fill on the left side of the backline.
Nacho Monreal is capable of slotting into the position, but this breaks the solidity in the central defence where deputy Rob Holding has not looked comfortable this term.
Arsene Wenger could switch to the 4-2-3-1 formation as a solution, but this looks highly unlikely with the Frenchman sticking with a similar tactic since the Premier League opener.
