‘There are certain limits the players can do’Arsenal’s Gabriel out for season with hamstring injury
Mikel Arteta believes squad sizes must be increased to cope with the demands placed on players by the increased number of games and has warned that more will suffer serious injuries if the schedule continues to expand.
Arsenal confirmed on Thursday that Gabriel Magalhães had become the latest member of Arteta’s squad to sustain a hamstring injury, with the Brazilian set for surgery and out for the rest of the season. He joins Kai Havertz, Gabriel Jesus and Riccardo Calafiori on the sidelines, although there was better news for Arsenal on Jurriën Timber and Ben White before Saturday’s game at Everton.
