Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta says William Saliba faces a late fitness test to determine whether he can face Wolves this weekend.

The Frenchman has missed the last four matches in all competitions and asked for an update on when he could return to action, Arteta said:

“We have to wait and see, yesterday he didn’t train. We have an extra day, let’s see if he can tomorrow.”

Arteta was then pressed on the nature of Saliba’s injury, and he revealed that it stems from an ankle issue he originally picked up before the Liverpool game back in August:

“It was something quite small. It came from an ankle injury that he had, and then he started to modify the way he was running and all that, and he started to overload an area, which is something common. But at some point, it became uncomfortable to continue training and playing, and we had to stop. And he looks better but we have to wait and see if he’s enough for him to be able to train with the team.”
