Mikel Arteta gives Gabriel Magalhaes and William Saliba injury update after Arsenal vs Chelsea

Mikel Arteta has revealed Gabriel Magalhaes is a "big concern" ahead of Arsenal's huge Premier League clash against Newcastle this weekend. The Gunners boss added that he "doesn't know" if William Saliba will be available for selection for the trip to St. James' Park on Sunday afternoon.

Saliba has been sidelined with a back injury since Arsenal were dumped out of the Europa League at the hands of Sporting CP. Rob Holding has been deputising in his absence but Arteta opted to hand Jakub Kiwior his first Premier League start against the Blues.

Gabriel went down on the pitch three times with various problems before eventually being substituted by Arteta during the win against Frank Lampard's side. The Gunners have yet another huge game on the horizon at Newcastle following their win against Chelsea after they moved back to the top of the Premier League table last night.
