“It’s a huge blow, but it’s going to be a big exercise for us to overcome another challenge.” said Arteta.
According to the Spanish manager, they are putting in some ideas the same way they dealt with captain Martin Odegaard when he was out injured.
I’m putting some ideas together, we will be doing new things as we did when Ødegaard was out. Gabi has played there, Nwaneri and Trossard… also Havertz can play there. We will talk internally and see what’s the best solution.” he said
At the same time, Arteta confirmed that Raheem Stirling is out injured but he will be accessed in the coming days to ascertain how long he will be out.
“Raheem Sterling will also be out for weeks. He’s suffered an injury, it’s his knee.” he said. “He will be assessed again in the next days to understand how long he will be out.” he continued
