Sports Mole rounds up all of Arsenal’s latest injury and suspension news ahead of Saturday’s Premier League clash with Wolverhampton Wanderers.

Reeling from an excruciating European exit, Arsenal return to Premier League duty on Saturday evening, facing Wolverhampton Wanderers at Molineux.

Mikel Arteta‘s men saw their Champions League dream evaporate in a 1-0 loss to Bayern Munich on Wednesday, as a Joshua Kimmich header propelled the German giants to a 3-2 aggregate success in the quarter-finals.

Now only fighting for Premier League stardom, the Gunners also faltered in the top flight last weekend, suffering a 2-0 home defeat to Aston Villa to fall two points behind holders Manchester City.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Arsenal’s latest injury and suspension news ahead of their clash with Gary O’Neil‘s men, who played out a 2-2 draw with Nottingham Forest last weekend to sit 11th in the standings.

Type of injury: Knee
Possible return date: May 12 (vs. Manchester United)

Jurrien Timber, who has spent eight months out with a cruciate ligament injury, has been training with the team for a few weeks as he enters the last stage of his rehabilitation. Arteta is optimistic that the Dutchman will be back in action during the closing stages of the season, but he will turn out for the Under-21s before making his senior comeback.
