Arsenal: Eberechi Eze reveals update after new injury scare before Champions League semi-final | OneFootball

Gunners star went off after receiving treatment in Premier League win over Newcastle

Eberechi Eze has allayed fears of a fresh injury setback after being forced off in Arsenal’s win over Newcastle.

Eze provided the only moment of magic on Saturday evening, netting a stunning goal inside the opening ten minutes as Mikel Arteta’s side got back on track in the Premier League title race.

The England international, who has only recently returned to action following a short lay-off with a calf issue, kept his place in midfield as Arteta made just one change to the team that started the 2-1 loss to Manchester City.

Arteta, meanwhile, has provided an update on the attacking midfielder as well as Kai Havertz after the German forward limped off in the first half following another off the ball incident.

"They are muscular niggles," Arteta said. We don't think it's too much. We have to wait and see if they can be available for Wednesday.

"He [Havertz] had a little niggle.

"I don't know how serious it is. It didn't look to big. The action, the way he describes it, is not too sharp. But we have to wait and see."
