Setback for Arsenal as Danny Welbeck faces four-week layoff

Arsenal forward Danny Welbeck will be out until after next month’s international break with a groin injury sustained against Chelsea on Sunday.

Welbeck will miss tonight’s Carabao Cup clash with Doncaster (7.45pm), the Premier League games with West Brom and Brighton and the Europa League tie at BATE Borisov of Belarus.

Boss Arsene Wenger told the club’s website yesterday: “Danny has a scan today. We don’t know how bad his groin injury is but he will certainly be out until the international break.”
