William Saliba And Miles Lewis-Skelley Not dealing with a serious injury and has not been ruled out for this weekend’s clash the wolfconfirm Arsenal Manager Mikel Arteta.
Saliba is dealing with a hamstring problem And Lewis-Skelley is a knee problem And the Gunners boss says both should be back in action next week.
Arsenal travel to Molineux at threepm on Saturday and he was less clear on whether the two would make the trip, but suggested it was a possibility.
‘It is nothing serious with Miles, it will be a meeting with the medical staff,’ Arteta told a press conference on Friday morning.
“They should be there for next week with something similar with Willie, we’ll see how it goes this week.”
Saliba, who has missed the last two games through injury, filled in at centre-back with Jurien Timber playing in the middle of defense against Aston Villa and Jakub Kiwir against Dinamo Zagreb.
The Gunners are a bit short on options in defence, with Ben White and Takehiro Tomiyasu still out.
White has been sidelined with a serious knee injury that has sidelined him since November, making just nine Premier League appearances so far this season.
However, the England international is close to returning to team training, which should see him back on the pitch in the not too distant future.
‘He hasn’t trained with the team yet but he is very close to doing so,’ Arteta said. ‘He will be with us very soon.’
Arteta is also dealing with injuries to his forward line, with Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Jesus out with long-term issues.
Expecting to bring in a forward this month, the Spaniard said: ‘Have I never said anything to a striker?
“We’ve lost two key players in Saka and Jesus, we lack goals and options up front, that’s clear.
“If we can get the right players, that’s what we’re actively looking at.”
