Injured Arsenal forward Gabriel Martinelli misses training ahead of PSV clash

Arsenal forward Gabriel Martinelli missed training on Wednesday afternoon ahead of the side’s Europa League clash with PSV.

Martinelli is understood to have taken a kick to his calf during the 1-0 win over Leeds on Sunday, while he was also feeling ill.

The forward duly missed training on Wednesday afternoon but is expected to be fit for the game with PSV at Emirates Stadium on Thursday.

The Gunners will, however, be without Oleksandr Zinchenko as he is still struggling with a calf problem.

Arsenal are going into the match at the Emirates in flying form as they look to solidify their placing of top spot in Group A.

They are currently two points clear of PSV in second, with both sides having played three games so far.

Arsenal are expected to rotate their team for the clash with PSV, with the likes of Eddie Nketiah due to start.
