Marquinhos has not travelled with the Arsenal squad for Thursday's Europa League clash against PSV Eindhoven, Mikel Arteta has confirmed.
As first revealed by football.london earlier in the day, the £3m summer signing from Sao Paulo was one of four first-team players - alongside Emile Smith Rowe, Mohamed Elneny and Oleksandr Zinchenko - not spotted in the final training session at the club's London Colney base.
It was later reported that the Brazilian was feeling unwell - hence his absence. And it can now be confirmed that it's enough to keep him out of contention to face PSV on Thursday evening with Arteta announcing in his pre-match press conference that the winger has not made the trip to the Netherlands.
