Arsenal Suffer ANOTHER Blow As Rosicky Confirms Muscle Injury

By on October 14, 2014

Arsenal’s injury curse continues as Tomas Rosicky has confirmed that he’s picked up a muscle problem while away on international duty.

The midfielder didn’t feature for the Czech Republic during last night’s 4-2 win at Kazakhstan in their Euro 2016 qualifier.

There were hopes he may have simply been rested, however, shortly after the game Rosicky told reporters that he has picked up an unspecified knock.

The 34-year-old confirmed that he was unable to sprint freely or make sharp movements as he has ‘something swollen between the muscles’.

Rosicky will now head back to London to be assessed by Arsenal’s medical team, but he may have to join the queue as we have a number of fitness doubts ahead of this weekends clash with Hull City.

The good news is that Rosicky has barely featured in the first team this season so he was unlikely to start on Saturday anyway, but it does leave us with one less option from the bench if he’s ruled out for any period of time.
