Injury Updates for Arsenal and Everton Players Following Recent Match
Arsenal secured a victory against Everton, with Gabriel Magalhaes and Ezri Konsa contributing goals and clean sheets. However, the match raised concerns regarding player fitness, particularly for Riccardo Calafiori, who was limited to a second-half appearance due to a hip issue.
Mikel Arteta confirmed that Calafiori experienced a minor problem, leading to his cautious substitution. Additionally, Declan Rice was seen holding his hamstring before being replaced, although Arteta did not provide specific details about his condition.
Before the match, Arteta mentioned that Bukayo Saka would likely be sidelined for several weeks, with reports suggesting an absence of 6-8 weeks. Arsenal made several changes for the game, resting key players including Saka and Calafiori, while Everton faced their own injury challenges, missing Jarrad Branthwaite and Jack Grealish.
