Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta already has solution to Takehiro Tomiyasu injury blow

Arsenal were on the receiving end of another major injury blow this week following confirmation that Takehiro Tomiyasu would miss the rest of the season.

The 24-year-old underwent knee surgery on Tuesday in London after over-extending in a challenge against Sporting CP last week. He was pictured leaving the Emirates Stadium on crutches and missed the 4-1 win over Crystal Palace.

An official club statement read: "Tomi has had successful surgery in London on Tuesday and will be ruled out for the remainder of this season. Everyone at the club will now be working hard with Tomi, so he can join pre-season training ahead of next season."
