This kind of situation often requires close communication between club and country. Both sides need to agree on what is best for the player’s long-term fitness. While the update was somewhat positive, it did not remove all doubt. Football fans will still be waiting for further confirmation in the coming days.

What This Means for Arsenal?

If he misses matches, the team could struggle to maintain the same level of creativity in the Premier League. With the kind of influence he has on the team, replacing him is impossible.
