Mikel Arteta provides injury update on three Arsenal stars after Fulham draw

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has provided an injury update on three players following the 1-1 Premier League draw against Fulham on the road.

The Gunners played out a frustrating stalemate against the Cottagers yesterday. They dominated proceedings, but struggled to create any clear-cut chances from open play.

Speaking after the game, Arteta was posed with questions from the media and one of those was focused on whether Gabriel, Riccardo Calafiori and Oleksandr Zinchenko will be fit for Wednesday.

The trio were ruled out with injuries against Fulham and Arteta said that he is hopeful that they will be available for the Champions League clash against AS Monaco at the Emirates Stadium.

He said: "I hope, but it’s more a question for the doctors and physios to understand where we are."

Arsenal are six points adrift of league leaders Liverpool after yesterday's draw, but the Merseyside giants have a game in hand against Everton after it was postponed on Saturday.
