Another Injury for Arsenal
Posted on March 27, 2008 Filed Under Injuries
Arsenal defender Bacary Sagna has been ruled out for at least three weeks with an ankle injury.
Sagna headed Arsenal in front at Stamford Bridge last Sunday before collecting the knock prior to Didier Drogba’s double for the Blues.
The defender was forced to pull out of the France squad to face England on Wednesday night and could even be out for up to five weeks.
Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger said: “The first news that we have is that he could be out for quite a while. I have seen it again. He wanted to kick the ball out and he twisted his ankle. That made it a bad injury.”
Sagna is now likely to miss Arsenal’s triple header with Liverpool in the Premier League and Champions League at the beginning of April also the weekend match against Bolton.
He could also miss the Gunners’ crucial trip to Manchester United on 13 April.
The right-back has featured on a regular basis for Arsenal this season after signing from French side Auxerre in the summer.
