More fear than harm for William Saliba. While Arsenal announced this Saturday on X that the central defender only suffered from an injury “ minor » a few hours before the start of the match against Aston Villa, Mikel Arteta then confided his concerns following the Gunners' draw against the Villans (2-2): ” we are worried, very worried. We will have more information. Another test on him and we'll see “. But it was a reassuring verdict for the 23-year-old.

The Team claims this Sunday that William Saliba only suffers from a hamstring muscle problem, which should keep him away from the field for only two weeks. He should therefore miss the last two matches of the play-off phase of the Champions League with the Londoners, against Dynamo Zagreb and Girona. The goal for the Frenchman will certainly be to be back to face Manchester City in the Premier League on February 2.
