Europa League: Six Arsenal Players out with Injury Ahead of Standard Liege Clash

Arsenal will be without up to six players, when they take on Standard Liege in the Europa League on Thursday, SportsMail reports.

Left-back Kieran Tierney could be out for up to three months, after he suffered a dislocated shoulder in Monday’s 3-1 win at West Ham.

The win against the Hammers, saw the Gunners end a nine-match run without a victory, but a number of players suffered knocks.

Hector Bellerin was withdrawn from the line-up ahead of kick-off with a tight hamstring and will not travel to Belgium.

Granit Xhaka suffered concussion during the game at the London Stadium and will miss the next two fixtures.

Club-record signing Nicolas Pepe also suffered a bruised knee, which means he could miss Sunday’s game against Manchester City, having already been ruled out of the Liege clash.

Dani Ceballos remains sidelined with a hamstring issue and Arsenal also confirmed Rob Holding would be absent for around two weeks as he recovers from a minor knee complaint.
