Arsenal’s key player has been sidelined for the upcoming match against Inter Milan, presenting a significant setback for Arteta.

 

A major setback for Arteta arises as an Arsenal star is confirmed to miss the clash with Inter Milan.

 

Arsenal’s star player will miss the upcoming match against Inter Milan, presenting a significant challenge for Arteta.

 

Mikel Arteta faces the task of managing without a crucial player in the clash against Inter Milan.

 

While Martin Odegaard has returned to the squad, Declan Rice has been excluded from the 23-man roster traveling to Italy.

 

The specifics of Rice’s injury remain unclear, despite him having played the entire match during Arsenal’s Premier League loss to Newcastle United on Saturday.

 

This development is particularly concerning given the team’s recent struggles in midfield.

 

Rice, who joined Arsenal for £105 million from West Ham in July 2023, has been a vital presence in the midfield.

 

His absence will be felt as the team prepares for the match at San Siro on Wednesday night.

 

This setback adds to the challenges Arsenal has faced in recent weeks, as they have not secured a victory in their last three league matches, falling seven points behind league leaders Liverpool.

 

Additionally, the resignation of Edu as sporting director has compounded the difficulties for the club.

 

On a brighter note, captain Odegaard has rejoined the squad after a two-month absence due to an ankle injury sustained while representing Norway during the September international break.

 

Arsenal has accumulated seven points from their first three Champions League fixtures and will be looking to build on their previous trip to Italy, where they managed a 0-0 draw against Atalanta in September.
