Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang could miss Everton clash

Wenger confirms Aubameyang, Wilshere are doubtful for Everton game

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang could miss Everton clash

02 February 2018 - 14:55

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has revealed that Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is a doubt to make his debut during tomorrow's Premier League clash versus Everton.

  • Mikel Arteta insists 27yo star won't be leaving Arsenal
  • Omari Hutchinson wants to continue at Ipswich Town



  • The Gabon international joined the Gunners from Borussia Dortmund on the final day of the winter transfer window after they paid a club-record £56m fee for his services.

    Since then, Aubameyang has taken to the field for first-team training, but Wenger has insisted that the 28-year-old is suffering from a fever which could restrict him from making his maiden bow for Arsenal.

    He told reporters, via The Mirror: "I have to assess how well he is physically today and how well he feels. He had a fever, so he could not practice a lot. I have to assess with the medical department how fit he can be."

    Meanwhile, Jack Wilshere is also a doubt for the weekend clash versus Everton after missing the previous outing with a sickness bug, and Wenger has confirmed that he will assess the midfielder's condition prior to the game.

    Arsenal are currently eight points behind fourth-placed after 25 games into the season, and they could potentially close the gap with Liverpool facing a tricky game versus Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday.
