Arsenal manager, Mikel Arteta, is very likely to be without
David Luiz for the Premier League opener against Fulham on Saturday.
The Athletic reports that the Brazilian defender has
suffered a neck injury, that could rule him out for an extended period.
Luiz’s return to the squad is now down to how he responds to
treatment and Arteta could be forced to make a late decision ahead of the trip
to Craven Cottage.
Irrespective of Luiz’s injury, Arteta has made it clear he
wants Rob Holding as a centre-back option this season.
Holding, 24, is now expected to stay at Arsenal rather than
join Newcastle on loan.
The English defender is also in line to start at Fulham.
