Arsenal full-back Takehiro Tomiyasu has been ruled out of today's Premier League clash with Everton as a result of a hamstring injury, the club have confirmed.
The club said on Twitter: "Tomiyasu misses out on today's matchday squad with a tight hamstring. Back soon, Tomi."
Tomiyasu has had a difficult second-half of the season with injuries, but it's been a solid first year in red and white for the Japanese international. The Gunners will miss his presence on the final day, but Mikel Arteta will be confident that the team he's named will be able to beat the Toffees.

Nuno Tavares has come in for Tomiyasu in defence, whilst Granit Xhaka and Mohamed Elneny start in central midfield together, while Martin Odegaard and Bukayo Saka support Gabriel Martinelli and Eddie Nketiah in attack.
Among the substitutes for Arteta's side are youngsters Charlie Patino, Salah Oulad M'Hand and Zak Swanson.
Arsenal need all three points to have any chance of finishing in the Champions League, whilst north London rivals Tottenham Hotspur also have to lose to already relegated Norwich city.
Arsenal XI vs Everton: Ramsdale, Cedric, Holding, Gabriel, Tavares, Elneny, Xhaka, Odegaard, Saka, Martinelli, Nketiah.
Subs : Leno, White, Swanson, Oulad M'Hand, Lokonga, Patino, Smith Rowe, Pepe, Lacazette.
