Declan Rice, Gabriel Martinelli, Riccardo Calafiori and William Saliba were injured in the game against Crystal Palace at the weekend.<\/p>\n<p>Saliba was substituted at halftime on Sunday, with Rice and Calafioli sent off in the second half. Martinelli was seen limping down the tunnel after &#8220;feeling something&#8221;. At Tuesday&#8217;s press conference, Arteta admitted Saliba is not fit enough to be in the squad for the game against Brighton, while Martinelli faces a late fitness test but remains a big question mark at the moment.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Asked how long the Frenchman will be out, Arteta said: &#8220;No, we are evaluating him but he will not play in this game.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Asked about Martinelli, the Spaniard added: &#8220;Yes, it seems certain that he will be absent.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We will have to undergo another test to confirm the extent of the injury, but this match will be completely different.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>However, Arteta admitted that Rice and Calafiori are also options.<\/p>\n<p>Bukayo Saka played in the match against Palace despite feeling unwell and was substituted in the second half. But Arteta said: &#8220;Yeah, he&#8217;ll be fine.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Gabriel Jesus, Kai Havertz, Martin Odegaard and Noni Madueke remain absent.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Asked if the depth of the squad would make them more relaxed, Arteta replied: &#8220;Relaxation is not an option in football. We will try to manage our time and workload as best as possible.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Up front, that&#8217;s where we have more difficulty. Gaby Jesus is out, Kai is out, Martinelli and Maduke are out. We don&#8217;t have many options, so we have to be more careful.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>If Arsenal beat Brighton on Wednesday night, they will advance to the Carabao Cup quarter-finals.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.express.co.uk\/sport\/football\/2127023\/Mikel-Arteta-Arsenal-injury-update-William-Saliba-Gabriel-Martinelli\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mikel Arteta has provided an update on Arsenal&#8217;s injury situation ahead of Wednesday night&#8217;s Carabao Cup clash with Brighton &#038; Hove Albion.
