Arsenal receive Aaron Ramsey injury blow

Arsenal will be without Welsh international Aaron Ramsey for at least a month, manager Arsene Wenger confirmed in a press conference.

The Wales international bagged a brace in midweek as the Gunners' thrashed Galatasaray by a 4-1 scoreline in the Champions League.

Wenger has now confirmed that the club will be without Ramsey for the home encounter against Newcastle United on Saturday.

Reports elsewhere have claimed that the 23-year-old will be out of first-team action for at least four weeks following the hamstring injury suffered during training.

"It's a shame because he was getting close to matching last season's form," Wenger said.
