Injuries have been a prevailing theme of Arsenal's season, with Martin Odegaard - who returned from a lengthy layoff against Inter - among those to have resided in the treatment room. The Norwegian's return is welcomed with warm embrace but the Gunners are still without some integral first-teamers.

Declan Rice remains a major doubt for Arsenal ahead of the trip to Chelsea in the Premier League on Sunday, with Mikel Arteta only able to offer a “vague” update on the midfielder’s foot injury. Rice missed Arsenal’s defeat to Inter Milan in the Champions League on Wednesday after sustaining the injury against Newcastle last weekend - with some reports suggesting the England international has a broken toe.

Declan Rice is injured, though Mikel Arteta hasn't provided any clarity regarding his diagnosis or recovery timeline.
