Why Leandro Trossard missed Arsenal training ahead of crucial Premier League clash vs Everton

Arsenal travel to Goodison Park to take on relegation-threatened Everton on Saturday in a crucial Premier League fixture for both sides.

The Gunners currently sit on top of the table, five points ahead of second-placed Manchester City despite playing one game less than Pep Guardiola's men. Meanwhile, the Toffees find themselves at the opposite end of the standings, languishing in 19th place, two points from safety.

That run of form resulted in the Merseyside club relieving Frank Lampard of his managerial duties last week, with former Burnley boss Sean Dyche coming in as his replacement and his first game in the managerial dugout will be up against Mikel Arteta and co. Ahead of the north Londoners' trip up north, new signing Leandro Trossard missed training on Tuesday, although Arsenal fans will be happy to know that the Belgian's reasons were not injury related.
