Arsenal defender Oleksandr Zinchenko has allayed worries over his injury concerns despite missing the Gunners’ friendly victory over Lyon earlier this week.
The Gunners tackled the French side in their first midseason clash during the World Cup break on Thursday and ran-out 3-0 victors. Gabriel, Eddie Nketiah and Fabio Vieira managed to get on the scoresheet, with Arsenal securing an extra-point with a penalty shootout success after the final whistle.
One notable absentee from Arsenal’s line-up for the game was left-back Zinchenko. The 25-year-old has caught the eye since his summer switch from Manchester City but his fitness issues have left some concerned.
