Declan Rice Injury: Out due to illness

Rice (illness) is out for Wednesday's trip to Club Brugge, per manager Mikel Arteta. "No, so Declan was ill. He was quite sick after the game, and he hasn't travelled with us. William is still not available, and Leo again picked another knock in an area where he had the issue, and I don't expect that it's going to be long, but unfortunately, he cannot be here."

Rice isn't an option for Wednesday's clash due to an illness. The midfielder is a huge blow in the starting XI as he has been arguably the most consistent Arsenal performer this season. An illness doesn't figure to be a long-term concern, so Rice could be back as soon as a Saturday clash with Wolves.
