Mikel Arteta has revealed Arsenal defender Gabriel Magalhaes has not trained with the rest of the squad in the last few days after picking up an injury in the 4-0 win over Atletico Madrid.

The Brazilian started the match against the La Liga side on Tuesday night and even scored and grabbed an assist. But he was subbed off in the 72nd minute and now Arteta has confirmed he picked up a knock.

Speaking to the media on Friday, Arteta said: "Not much, obviously big Gabi had to leave the pitch with an issue, and he hasn't been able to train yet, so let’s see how he evolves in the next 24 hours, whether he's available or not for the weekend."

Arteta was also asked for an update on the club's long-term absentees, such as Gabriel Jesus, Kai Havertz, Noni Madueke and Martin Odegaard. "They are all progressing really well, they are all starting to do certain activities, they are all super willing to be available as quick as possible but at the moment none of them are yet in contention in the next week or so," he said.
