Arsenal striker Olivier Giroud out of Spurs clash

Published on: 16 November 2017

Arsenal striker Olivier Giroud is out of the derby against Tottenham on Saturday.

Giroud picked up a thigh strain in France's 2-0 win over Wales and has not recovered in time to face Tottenham on Saturday lunchtime.

Gunners boss Arsene Wenger said: “Giroud picked up an injury, I don't think he will be available.

“It's short term, we have to assess him on Monday."

There is a chance that Shkodran Mustafi and Danny Welbeck could return from injuries.

Defender Mustafi has not played in over a month since limping out of Germany's World Cup qualifier with Azerbaijan.
