This news I'm about to reveal is one that any Arsenal fan won't like to read as far as the topic "Arsenal Injuries" is concerned.
After seeing some of our top players including Aaron Ramsey, Mathieu Debuchy and Olivier Giroud spend turns on the injury table, there is yet another one who is going to be on the sidelines for as long as 12 weeks.
It has happened again on the injury front as yet another Arsenal player Mesut Ozil gets sidelined for at least three months. The German midfielder has added to the Arsenal injury list after sustaining an ankle injury during Arsenal's 2-0 loss to Chelsea at Stamford Bridge last weekend.
Mesut Ozil left Arsenal for Germany to join his colleagues as they prepare to play some of their international games. It was discovered that he has got a problem with his leg. An MRI scan was conducted yesterday and it revealed that he has suffered severe damage in his ankle region and therefore will be unable to play football for at least a period of three months.
The German Football Association also confirmed this on their official website.
"The MRI examination revealed a partial rupture of the outer band of the left knee joint.
"The treatment is... six weeks of immobilisation of the knee joint. Mesut Ozil is likely to be [out for] 10 to 12 weeks."
Reports according to Goal also revealed that Arsenal centre back Laurent Koscielny has been released from the France squad due to an Achilles problem which he has been battling with since the beginning of this season. As I speak he is currently in London receiving treatment.
The Arsenal medical team sees Koscielny's injury as a minor one and expect the Frenchman to be available for Arsenal's next Premier League match against Hull City.
This news in definitely not a pleasant one for all the Arsenal family but what else can we do? Let's just hope that we don't get more injuries.
