Arsenal welcome bitter rivals Tottenham to the Emirates on Sunday but Mikel Arteta could be without one of his key stars as he was absent from training on Friday.
The two North London clubs have started the season in impressive fashion with both sitting in the Premier League’s top four. The Gunners beat Everton 1-0 last weekend and it was that match where Gabriel Martinelli came off injured after 24 minutes.
Mikel Arteta has stated in his press conference on Friday that the Brazilian is not ruled out yet for Sunday’s clash with Tottenham but the winger was not in training on Friday, which hints that he certainly won’t be in the starting 11.
