Arsenal injury, suspension list and return dates for Tottenham: Jesus, Calafiori, Nwaneri

Reeling from back-to-back knockout disappointments, Arsenal can get their disgruntled fans back onside again with a statement win over Tottenham Hotspur in Wednesday's Premier League North London derby.

The Gunners will not be adding to their 14 FA Cup titles this season, having suffered a gut-wrenching penalty-shootout defeat to Manchester United in Sunday's third-round tie following a 1-1 draw at the Emirates.

That heartbreaking exit came after a 2-0 loss to Newcastle United in the first leg of their EFL Cup semi-final, and Mikel Arteta's side could be nine points below leaders Liverpool in the Premier League table by the time Wednesday's crunch clash kicks off.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up all of Arsenal's latest injury and suspension news ahead of their clash with Spurs, who made hard work of eliminating Tamworth from the FA Cup even if the 3-0 scoreline tells a different story.

Gabriel Jesus

Status: Out Type of injury: Knee Possible return date: Unknown

The luckless Gabriel Jesus was taken off on a stretcher with a new knee injury in the loss to Man United - one which Arteta admitted looks to be severe - and he will certainly miss the derby as he undergoes further examinations.

Ethan Nwaneri

Status: Out Type of injury: Muscle Possible return date: February 2 (vs. Manchester City)

Seventeen-year-old sensation Ethan Nwaneri damaged a muscle in the Gunners' 1-1 draw with Brighton & Hove Albion last time out in the Premier League, and the teenager is not anticipated to return until next month.

Bukayo Saka

Status: Out Type of injury: Hamstring Possible return date: Unknown

Bukayo Saka remains on the long road to recovery from his hamstring operation and will likely be sidelined for another six weeks; his presence has been sorely missed over the past month.

Riccardo Calafiori

Status: Major doubt Type of injury: Muscle Possible return date: January 15 (vs. Tottenham)

Injury-prone defender Riccardo Calafiori was an unexpected absentee from the squad to face Man United after sustaining a fresh muscular injury, one that puts his participation for the North London derby in major doubt.

Ben White

Status: Out Type of injury: Knee Possible return date: January 29 (vs. Girona)

Ben White has been sidelined for nearly two months since going under the knife for a knee injury in November, but Arteta is not ruling out the prospect of the right-back returning before the month is up.

Takehiro Tomiyasu

Status: Out Type of injury: Knee Possible return date: Unknown

Takehiro Tomiyasu is being put to work on the training pitches following his second knee injury of the season, but an estimated comeback date has not been set for the Japanese defender, who will be gradually eased back into action after a lengthy absence.
