Arsenal winger Bukayo Saka is now doubtful to face Chelsea in the second leg of the Carabao Cup semi-final on Tuesday night.
The Englishman sustained a hip problem in the warm-up before the Premier League clash against Leeds United last weekend.
He was subsequently replaced by Noni Madueke in the starting XI. The 23-year-old made his mark with a goal and an assist.
Speaking in today's presser, Arteta has now revealed that Saka is still doubtful for the London derby after his untimely knock at Elland Road.
The Gunners vice-captain is facing a race against time, and it looks likely that Madueke will continue on the right wing ahead of him.
Madueke has had limited playing time due to Saka's presence, but now has the opportunity to make his mark and secure a final berth.
Arsenal lead 3-2 after the first leg of the League Cup semi-final at Stamford Bridge. They go into the second leg as slight favourites.
