Six players missing from Arsenal training as Mikel Arteta dealt injury concerns amid title hope

Six players have not been pictured training at London Colney ahead of Arsenal's clash with Leicester City at the weekend. The Foxes will welcome Mikel Arteta's side to the King Power Stadium on Saturday afternoon as the visitors look to build-upon their dramatic win over Aston Villa.

In a video by Football Daily, the players in question are Thomas Partey, Gabriel Jesus, Eddie Nketiah, Jorginho, Oleksandr Zinchenko and Bukayo Saka. Both Partey and Jesus have been out of action due to injury for a while now, though the remaining quartet all featured at Villa Park on Saturday.
