Mikel Arteta provides Takehiro Tomiyasu and Oleksandr Zinchenko update amid Arsenal injury issue

Mikel Arteta has provided an update on the fitness of Takehiro Tomiyasu and Oleksandr Zinchenko ahead of the Premier League's resumption in just over a week.

The Gunners can now look forward to their fixture against West Ham on Boxing Day following the conclusion of their mid-season break. Arteta's side lost 2-0 to Juventus at the Emirates Stadium on Saturday, with a Granit Xhaka own goal and a Samuel Iling-Junior strike proving the difference between the two sides.

Arsenal didn't play badly, however, and saw two goals for Eddie Nketiah ruled out either side of the break. Perhaps more worryingly for the Gunners, a number of stars did not make the squad for the Juventus clash due to injury.
