Tzolis out injured

Mikel Arteta confirms Arsenal winger is out for weeks

09 October 2026 - 19:16

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has confirmed that winger Christos Tzolis will be sidelined for a few weeks due to a hamstring injury.

  • Arsenal duo set to miss Leeds game with injury
  • Chelsea midfielder won't start against Bournemouth


  • The Greek international has had a fine start to his Gunners career and has already contributed four assists across all competitions.

    However, he is unlikely to feature in the next few matches after suffering a hamstring injury during the international break with his country.

    Tzolis returned to the Gunners ahead of schedule as a result, and Arteta has confirmed that he won't be available for some period of time.

    The news is a huge blow for the north London giants, given that Tzolis is the only specialist left winger in the squad at the moment.

    Eberechi Eze has started as the left winger outside of the Premier League this term, and he looks the natural solution for the role.

    Noni Madueke has occasionally played on the left wing in his career and he could emerge as another alternative for the manager.
