Southampton suffer huge injury blow ahead of Arsenal Premier League clash

Southampton have suffered a major injury blow ahead of Arsenal's visit to St Mary's on Sunday. Saints defender Kyle Walker-Peters will miss the clash with the Gunners due to a hamstring injury.

The former Tottenham full-back limped off in Southampton's 1-0 win over AFC Bournemouth on Tuesday, but his injury is worse than first feared. The England international will miss the game against Mikel Arteta's side in what is set to be a lengthy spells on the sidelines.

"We have another big injury, Kyle Walker-Peters is a long time out," said Saints boss Ralph Hasenhuttl, via HampshireLive. "Hamstring injury. We will see how long. There's a lot of blood so we don't know yet. It was a long step he made to the ball and this was the moment the injury came."
