PREMIER LEAGUE!! Jubilation As Arsenal Star Defender Returns From Injury After 10-Month Absence

 

Arsenal centre-back Rob Holding is set to make his return from almost 10 months out with injury against Nottingham Forest this week.

The Gunners have confirmed the 24-year-old is “available for selection” for the first time after a serious knee injury – suffered against Manchester United last December – required surgery.

Holding returned to training in August and looks set to give manager Unai Emery the chance at more rotation in their first Carabao Cup outing of the campaign on Tuesday night.

They host a Forest side who are in good form and sixth in the Championship table after four wins, three draws and just a single defeat from their opening eight games of the season.

Hector Bellerin, Kieran Tierney and Dinos Mavropanos could also make their first-team returns for the Gunners after playing minutes against Wolves U23s last Friday.

Alexandre Lacazette remains absent with an ankle problem that is expected to keep him out until October, however, while Ainsley Maitland-Niles is suspended after being sent-off against Aston Villa on Sunday.

UNSATISFIED Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang Sarcastically Responds To 87-Rated FIFA 21 Card As Arsenal Talisman Receives Same Rating As Last Year

It’s safe to say Pierre-Emerick Aubemayang isn’t very happy about his FIFA 21 rating. The Gunners’ talisman has been handed an 87 rating for the new edition of the game – the same rating he was in FIFA 19. And the Gabon international has sarcastically responded to his card with a laughing face emoji. Aubameyang had another superb season for the Gunners, hitting 22 Premier League goals for Mikel Arteta’s side – the same he managed last year. However, the 31-year-old played a pivotal role in Arsenal’s FA Cup triumph, netting a brace against Chelsea to seal a first trophy in management for Arteta. Meanwhile, it is understood Aubameyang will ‘imminently’ sign a new three-year contract at the Emirates. It is understood he will become the club’s highest earner on his new deal, surpassing Mesut Ozil’s reported £350,000-a-week wages. The report adds Arteta has been integral in talks to keep the 31-year-old striker in north London. Former Arsenal head of football Raul Sanllehi is believed to ha...
