Riccardo Calafiori
23-Year-Old
Arsenal
Premier
GTD
Injury Undisclosed
Est. Return 1/8/2026
Not playing against Bournemouth
Calafiori (undisclosed) is out for Saturday's clash against Bournemouth, manager Mikel Arteta confirmed Friday.
ANALYSIS
Calafiori picked up his current issue during warmups prior to a Dec. 27 matchup versus Brighton. However, little is known about the injury, and he's now set to miss a third successive game. With the Gunners' main left-back still unavailable, Piero Hincapie might be deployed in that position again to take advantage of his defensive strength.
