Former Arsenal defender Nigel Winterburn believes Kieran Tierney's recent injury record could hamper his chances of being made captain at the Emirates.
The ex- Celtic left-back has been a hit for Mikel Arteta's side in the English Premier League and has worn the armband on a few occasions this season.
Pierre Emerick-Aubameyang was the Gunners captain at the start of the campaign, but had it stripped by the club for disciplinary issues before moving to Barcelona in January.
