Arsenal winger undergoing treatment for calf injury
Arsenal winger Gabriel Martinelli continues to undergo treatment for a calf injury ahead of Brazil's World Cup qualifier against Peru tonight.
The 23-year-old was fantastic for the Gunners before the international break. He managed four goal contributions in the final three games.
However, he could be doubtful for the forthcoming games, having been training with a calf problem over the past few days with Brazil.
Martinelli reportedly has an edema in his right calf and it is unclear whether he will make the matchday squad to face Peru later in the day.
If he is absent from the team, it remains to be seen whether he will be involved in the upcoming league encounter versus Bournemouth.
Arsenal travel to the Vitality Stadium to face the Cherries on Saturday before hosting Shakhtar Donetsk and Liverpool at the Emirates.
The Gunners are currently third in the league standings with 17 points, just one behind Liverpool, who face Chelsea at home on Sunday.
