Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger admitted David Ospina, Alex Iwobi and Henrikh Mkhitaryan were injury doubts ahead of Thursday’s Europa League meeting with Atletico Madrid.
Ospina has a rib injury from Sunday’s defeat at Manchester United. The Colombian international had not long returned from spraining his ankle earlier in the month but could now be left out of the squad for the biggest game of the season.
Wenger said: “Ospina has a rib problem. We’ll see how well everyone recovers. Thursday will come very quickly. We’ll have to monitor them over the next 48 hours. We’ll know more on Tuesday.”
The 29-year-old may not have been starting anyway....
