Arsenal midfielder Martin Zubimendi was not with his Gunners teammates at their open training this morning, according to Sky Sports journalist Sam Blitz.
However, there are no suggestions that the Spaniard is injured as he was doing work elsewhere, with his training load being managed.
Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta will be praying none of his players get injured going forward but Kai Havertz and Gabriel Magalhaes remain unavailable and did not train today.
Arsenal secured a 2-1 victory over Wolverhampton Wanderers at Emirates Stadium on Saturday and the players returned to training this morning after two days off.
Cristhian Mosquera also remains out of action, but Havertz is pushing hard to return before the end of the year.
Gabriel could also be available in the coming weeks, but Zubimendi is expected to feature against Everton on Saturday.
The Gunners travel to Hill Dickinson Stadium to take on the Toffees and will be desperate to leave with all three points.
They host Crystal Palace in the quarter-final of the Carabao Cup afterwards before Premier League home games against Brighton & Hove Albion and Aston Villa.
Arsenal dropped points against Everton, Brighton and Villa last season and will need to be on top of their game if they want to win those games in the coming days and weeks.
They lost to Villa away from home earlier this month and will be desperate to get revenge in front of their fans later this month.
Arteta could have all his injured players back for those crucial games, and heading into 2026 on top of the Premier League table will be huge for the Gunners’ morale.
They came very close to dropping two points against Wolves and will need to improve across all areas on the pitch heading into the second half of the campaign.
