Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has confirmed a fresh injury blow ahead of the Premier League clash against Everton on the road tomorrow night.
The Gunners have been hampered by numerous injuries this campaign and they suffered yet another setback against Wolverhampton Wanderers.
Ben White sustained a hamstring injury versus Wolves last weekend and Arteta has revealed that he will be sidelined for a few matches.
He said: “Yeah, he’s out. He’s evolving well, it’s not a major injury, but it will keep him out for a few games, I think. I don’t think it’s going to be [a major injury].”
Arsenal are presently two points ahead of second-placed Manchester City and must beat the Toffees to avoid dropping down the standings.
The Gunners shared the spoils against the Merseyside outfit in both meetings last term, but will be aiming for a victory this time around.
Everton are missing some key players such as Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, Jarrad Branthwaite and Seamus Coleman with hamstring injuries.
Idrissa Gueya and Iliman Ndiaye won’t feature due to their participation at the Africa Cup of Nations. They won’t return until January.
