Arsenal are hopeful that Riccardo Calafiori will return to fitness following the international break.
The Italian defender sustained a knee injury during Arsenal's recent 1-0 victory over Shakhtar Donetsk in the UEFA Champions League. Despite initial concerns about the injury’s severity, it has since been confirmed that Calafiori will be sidelined for only a few weeks.
Since joining Arsenal in the summer of 2024, Calafiori has played a key role in Arsenal's defense, making 13 appearances across all competitions and scoring one goal. His contributions have been valuable in both the Premier League and the Champions League, where he has helped to reinforce Arsenal's defensive line.
Arsenal's first match after the international break is set for November 23, 2024, in an away fixture against Newcastle United. The club is optimistic that Calafiori will be available for this match, which would strengthen their defensive options as they push forward in their league and European campaigns.
