What Mikel Arteta has said: "I don't know. Unfortunately he got injured in training. It doesn't look good. I believe he'll be out for a few weeks. It's more a groin."
Jurrien Timber

Injury: Knee
Return date: 2024
What Arteta has said: "Huge blow. Especially for him after just joining the club. To have the injury he has is a huge blow. We recruited him with clear intentions and what he was bringing to the team was evident, but he's not going to be able to do it this season. We have to adapt. These things happen, unfortunately, and we have to move on."
Mohamed Elneny
The midfielder suffered a serious knee injury in January, which sidelined him for the remainder of last season. There has been little news regarding his recovery and a possible return date is currently unclear.
