Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta has confirmed that William Saliba will miss Tuesday's Premier League clash with Chelsea. The defender has missed the last six games, seeing the Gunners conceding 13 goals.
In his absence, the north Londoners have lost their spot at the top of the table following Manchester City's near-perfect run in 2023. The reigning champions went above Arsenal on Sunday after they defeated Fulham 2-1 at Craven Cottage.
The ball is back in the Gunners' court this week, with nothing but a victory against Chelsea helpful in their attempts to overtake Man City. Frank Lampard’s men make the short trip across London searching for their first win since March 11.
