The 4 Arsenal players Freddie Ljungberg could be without for Norwich City clash

Arsenal could be without four players for the trip to Norwich City this weekend.

The Gunners head to Carrow Road on Sunday for the first game since Unai Emery was sacked by the club, after Arsenal parted company with the Spaniard this morning (Friday) following the 2-1 defeat against Eintracht Frankfurt last night (Thursday).

Interim head coach Freddie Ljungberg is set to take charge of the Gunners for the game in Norfolk with the search for a new head coach now underway, with the former Arsenal star taking training this afternoon (Friday).

But the Gunners have a number of injury concerns for the game at Norwich, with the Gunners providing an update on the fitness of their injured players via the club website .

Shkodran Mustafi was also substituted during the defeat at the Emirates Stadium, and Arsenal have said he is also being assessed ahead of the game, with a bruised left foot.

Fellow defender Hector Bellerin is also currently being assessed, with the Spaniard nursing a tight hamstring.

Midfielder Dani Ceballos also has a hamstring injury, which he sustained in the Europa League clash with Vitoria earlier this month. He is set to miss the game against the Canaries, with Arsenal adding that he is aiming to return to full training in mid December.

But Arsenal could welcome back Sead Kolasinac to the squad this weekend.

The Bosnian missed the games against Southampton and Eintracht Frankfurt with a slight hamstring issue, but Arsenal say he is now available for selection.
