Bad news for Arsenal! In-form defender Takehiro Tomyasu sidelined indefinitely with calf injury

Premier League

Nottingham Forest

Tomiyasu <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/arsenal-boss-mikel-arteta-takehiro-tomiyasu-wolves/bltdd6175adcc226f9f" target="_blank">went off late in his team's win against Wolves after going down with pain in his leg</a>. He then missed the Gunners' 4-3 win against Luton on Tuesday because of the injury and Arteta says he will be out for 'a while'.

WHAT HAPPENED?

Arteta said in his press conference after the win against Luton on Tuesday: "We had a scan, and it’s not good news. He’s got an injury in his calf, and he’s going to be out for a while."

WHAT ARTETA SAID

The loss of the Japan international will come as a blow for Arteta as he has been in fine form for the north London team this season. Meanwhile, they are already without the likes of Jurrien Timber, Emile Smith Rowe, Thomas Partey and Fabio Vieira due to injury.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

Despite the absence of Tomiyasu, Arsenal will be hoping to maintain their six-game winning run in all competitions when they visit Aston Villa in the Premier League on Saturday. Three days later, they will travel to Eindhoven to face PSV in their last Champions League group stage game. The Japan international's injury will likely see Ben White return to the starting line-up.
