Arsenal have been handed a further defensive blow with the news that Sokratis Papastathopoulos is set to be on the sidelines for up to four weeks.
The Greece international fell awkwardly on his ankle while competing for a ball against Jesse Lingard during the Gunners' FA Cup defeat to Manchester United on Friday.
Laurent Koscielny also sustained an injury in the match against United when Romelu Lukaku’s foot collided with his head, ruling him out with a suspected broken jaw.
Head coach Unai Emery has already lost Hector Bellerin to injury, with the full-back ruled out for up to nine months after rupturing his anterior cruciate ligament, while centre back Rob Holding is also injured and unavailable for the rest of the season.
Arsenal have until 11pm GMT (6pm ET) on Thursday to sign players in the January transfer market.
The Gunners are currently in talks with Paris Saint-Germain over a loan move for Nkunku. We understand that loan move for Barcelona's Dennis Suarez has stalled due to the La Liga gaints not willing to sell.
