Arsenal’s injury issues in defence have continued after Riccardo Calafiori was forced to miss Sunday’s FA Cup clash with Manchester United.

Calafiori was left out of the squad entirely for the third round tie at Emirates Stadium, with Arsenal confirming he was absent due to injury.

“Riccardo Calafiori is out injured, so is not in the 20-man squad at all,” Arsenal wrote on their official club website when posting the team news.

Calfiori played 90 minutes last weekend as Arsenal draw 1-1 at Brighton, but was an unused substitute on Tuesday for the Gunners’ 2-0 loss to Newcastle in the Carabao Cup.

Myles Lewis-Skelly started in place of the Italian against Newcastle and kept his place for Sunday’s game with Manchester United.

Calafiori has been troubled by injuries since joining Arsenal in the summer from Bologna as part of a deal worth over £40million.

Most recently, the defender was troubled by a groin injury and he has played three games since the start of December.
