Arsenal injuries: Every player out of north London Derby

• Arsenal have several injury concerns heading into the north London Derby
• Gabriel Jesus tore ACL at the weekend
• Riccardo Calafiori muscle injury will not keep him out for long

It’s been casualties galore in north London this season, with Arsenal joining Tottenham’s injury party.

After Martin Odegaard missed two months in the autumn with an ankle issue. Ben White underwent knee surgery in November and Bukayo Saka tore his hamstring just. Before Christmas. Minor setbacks for an array of players have hindered Arsenal in between. With the Gunners struggling to match their pre-season expectations.

Plenty has conspired against Mikel Arteta’s side this term. There’s no doubt about that. Two domestic cup defeats at home in the space of a few days has angered a fanbase desperate for a return to glory. They’ve come ever so close under Arteta, but 2024/25 has campaign of stagnation so far.

The Arsenal boss will hope that Wednesday’s north London Derby ignites a stuttering season. Which isn’t dead yet. However, he’ll have to make do without several key players. Here’s the latest Arsenal injury news ahead of the derby.

Goalkeepers & Defenders

Riccardo Calafiori has endured multiple injury setbacks since joining the club. A muscle issue kept him out of Sunday’s FA Cup defeat to Manchester United.

Myles Lewis-Skelly’s emergence at สมัคร UFABET วันนี้ รับเครดิตฟรีสำหรับสมาชิกใหม่ left-back has mitigated the Italian’s availability woes, and the teenager may be required again on Wednesday. Arteta, though, has confirmed that Calafiori’s muscle injury isn’t serious and he could be back for the derby.

There were also a few concerns over Jurrien Timber. He hobbled off at the weekend with a potential hamstring issue. The Dutchman has force to play a lot of minutes with Ben White and Takehiro Tomiyasu out of action for the long haul having miss much of his debut season with a torn ACL.

However, Timber should be fine to start against Spurs with Arteta saying. That the defender was merely struggling with cramp on Sunday.

Midfielders

Jorginho was unable to take a penalty in Sunday’s shootout. Because of an injury sustained in extra time, but like Timber. The Italian won’t be out for a sustained period of time. He, too, was struggling with cramp.

However, the veteran midfielder is unlikely to involve from the outset on Wednesday with Declan Rice and Thomas Partey available. Rice was suspended for the reverse fixture which meant Jorginho started at the base of midfield.
