Arsenal team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Leeds United

Sports Mole rounds up all of Arsenal's injury and suspension news ahead of their Premier League clash with Leeds United on Saturday.

Arsenal make the trip to face Leeds United at the weekend looking to build on their recent return to form in the Premier League.

The Gunners have posted two successive victories at the Emirates Stadium, following a convincing win over Southampton with three more points against West Ham United on Wednesday.

While headlines continue to surround the disciplinary action taken against Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, boss Mikel Arteta is contending with less issues in the treatment room.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up all of Arsenal's latest injury and suspension news ahead of Saturday's encounter at Elland Road.

Kolasinac remains out with a serious ankle injury sustained on international duty and is not expected to return to full training until January.


Bernd Leno

Status: Major doubt
Type of injury: Groin
Possible return date: December 18 (vs. Leeds)

Leno has been struggling with a tight groin since the start of the month, but Aaron Ramsdale has firmly cemented himself as the club's number one. It remains to be seen whether the German will return to the substitutes' bench ahead of the January window.


ARSENAL'S SUSPENSION LIST
