Arsene Wenger has revealed that he will be without Bacary Sagna for at least three weeks with the ankle injury sustained against Chelsea last weekend.
“He has an ankle injury and the first news that we have is that he could be out for quite a while,” said Wenger.
“I don’t know [exactly] how long he will be out but I feel it will be three weeks at least. Five is the [worst case scenario].”
Wenger seems likely to turn to Eboue to fill the gap with Diaby or Walcott coming into midfield, although Hoyte is another option in a straight swap.
