Mikel Arteta has given the latest update on the injury of Arsenal’s first-choice goalkeeper David Raya ahead of the Premier League fixture this weekend.
According to recent updates, Arsenal’s momentum-building start to the season could be severely disrupted this weekend as goalkeeper David Raya has emerged as a major injury doubt for the highly anticipated Premier League clash against Leicester City at the Emirates Stadium.
Raya, a summer signing from Brentford who has been an instrumental signing for the Mikel Arteta led Arsenal has been confirmed to be a doubt for the Gunners ahead of the Leicester City fixture. His potential absence would not only disrupt the Gunners’ defensive rhythm but also raise concerns about their ability to maintain their early-season momentum.
With the international break looming, Arsenal will be eager to head into the pause with another three points, but Leicester’s visit poses a significant threat. The Foxes have shown signs of resurgence under Steve Cooper and will sense an opportunity to exploit any weakness in the Arsenal rear guard.
The 29-year-old missed Arsenal’s 5-1 Carabao Cup win over Bolton on Wednesday, with 16-year-old Jack Porter taking his place. The former Brentford star played in the 2-2 draw against Manchester City last weekend but reportedly left the Etihad with an apparent limp after picking up an issue during the game. Now, he is in a race against time to face Leicester on Saturday.
Speaking on his availability for the weekend Mikel Arteta revealed that this was hard to say or decide for now but the team still waits for the final reports from the medical staff who are assessing the injury.
Arsenal, who sit fourth in the Premier League, host Leicester on Saturday afternoon, followed by a heavyweight clash with Paris Saint-Germain three days later in their second Champions League match of the season.
