Arsenal team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Everton

Sports Mole rounds up Arsenal's latest injury and suspension news ahead of Saturday's Premier League clash with Everton.

Arsenal make the trip to Everton at the weekend looking to improve on their current ninth-placed standing in the Premier League table.

At a time when uncertainty remains over their managerial position, the Gunners succumbed tamely to Manchester City in front of their own supporters on Sunday afternoon.

While it remains unclear whether Freddie Ljungberg will still be in charge for the game at Goodison Park, the Swede is currently having to deal with a crowded treatment room.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Arsenal's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the visit to Merseyside.

Possible return date: December 21 (vs. Everton)

Kolasinac sustained an ankle injury against Man City, leading to the left-back being withdrawn during the first half. It appears unlikely that the Bosnian will be available for the next fixture.


Dani Ceballos
