Arsenal Faces Injury Woes Ahead of Fulham Clash

Arsenal's Premier League match against Fulham saw a significant injury concern as defender Gabriel Magalhaes was substituted early with a suspected hamstring injury, raising worries ahead of their upcoming Champions League quarter-final against Real Madrid. Meanwhile, the team welcomed back Bukayo Saka, who has recovered from a lengthy injury layoff and is expected to feature, providing a boost to the squad. However, they will be without Riccardo Calafiori for several weeks due to a knee injury sustained on international duty, compounding their injury woes. Mikel Arteta confirmed that while Calafiori's injury could have been worse, it still presents a challenge at a critical point in the season. Arsenal, currently trailing Liverpool by 12 points, aims to capitalize on any opportunities to close the gap in the league. As the team prepares for their clash with Fulham, maintaining squad health will be vital for their title aspirations.
