Arsenal: Mikel Merino to Have Surgery on Foot Injury
- On Saturday, Arsenal confirmed midfielder Mikel Merino will have surgery in the coming days for a bone injury in his right foot and begin recovery afterwards.
- Having come on as a substitute against Manchester United last week, Merino was then left out of Mikel Arteta's squad to face Leeds.
- According to the report, Arsenal head coach Mikel Arteta said `It's a bone that's giving him some pain, and we need specialists to see how long he will be out.` The BBC states the severity will be clearer within 48 hours.
- Losing Merino removes an important option as Arsenal expect him to be out for a sustained spell, despite his six goals highlighting his value to the Premier League leaders.
- The club says that Mikel Merino will begin his recovery and rehabilitation after surgery and aims for a return to full training before the end of the season.
