Arsenal injury update: Jorginho, Gabriel Jesus and Eddie Nketiah latest news and return dates

Arsenal are sitting pretty at the top of the Premier League, a feat made all the more impressive by the fact Mikel Arteta has rarely had his full squad available since the World Cup.

Emile Smith Rowe was injured before the tournament in Qatar, while star striker Gabriel Jesus was injured during it.

Still, the Gunners have managed to overcome those problems and head into the final stretch in a fantastic position.

Supporters, of course, are eager to see Jesus back in action as soon as possible.

With that in mind, here’s a look at the latest Arsenal injuries

Jorginho

The Italian international was forced off at half-time during the win over Everton, with Arteta confirming Jorginho “wasn’t feeling good”.

Still, the problem is not thought to be serious.

Potential return date: Saturday 4 March 2023

Eddie Nketiah

The forward was spotted limping towards the win over Everton, sparking fears Arsenal would be without their two recognised strikers.

Arteta, however, suggested there is little to worry about.

Potential return date: Saturday 4 March 2023

Gabriel Jesus

The Brazilian recently posted a photo of himself back training with a ball, captioned “step by step”.

There is said to be a hope of having Jesus back in the squad before the international break at the end of the month, which would fit in with the timeline the player himself hinted at back in January.

Potential return date: March 2023

Mohamed Elneny

The midfielder underwent surgery on a knee problem last month and is not expected to return before the end of the season.
