Arsenal have put out an update on the status of Spanish right-back Hector Bellerin, following his substitution due to a collision during their 3-1 loss to Premier League leaders Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on Saturday.
Bellerin clashed with compatriot Marcos Alonso in attempts to stop the left-back from putting the Blues ahead, but came off second best, and was not able to continue the match as his head made contact with Alonso's arm while they both were in the air.
