MIKEL ARTETA has been handed a blow as Arsenal duo Gabriel Magalhaes and Oleksandr Zinchenko face late fitness tests ahead of Sunday’s clash against Nottingham Forest.
The pair have been crucial to Arsenal ‘s fine early season form, with Zinchenko having missed the last few weeks of action.
Gabriel was pictured limping to the team coach after their 2-0 defeat to PSV and could be out of contention for the clash on Sunday .
Elsewhere, Leicester City boss Brendan Rodgers is braced for a January raid for Youri Tielemans.
The Belgian was a target for Arteta’s Gunners in the summer but a deal never materialised.
However, the midfielder is still rated by the Arsenal boss, but Manchester United could look to compete with them for a January move.
