INJURY WOE: Arsenal's William Saliba in action.

Arsenal's French centre half William Saliba is set to miss a number of weeks after injuring his back in the Europa League defeat to Sporting midweek. 

21-year old Saliba had been selected by French head coach Didier Deschamps for their Euro 2024 qualifying matches against Stephen Kenny's Ireland and the Netherlands, but French publication L'Equipe suggest that he will now withdraw from the squad.
