Unai Emery is confident that he will be able to call upon Lucas Torreira this Sunday when his side welcomes Everton to the Emirates.
The midfielder, who was making his first start for the club on Thursday night, was forced with an injury just before the hour mark.
Speaking to reporters, as relayed by the Daily Star, after the game in the Europa League, Emery confirmed that the injury was not too serious.
Each match we play, I am responsible for the group and for Torreira also, today I think it is better [for Lucas] to leave the match. I hope that tomorrow and Saturday, he will be okay for Sunday.
Concerns were raised among Arsenal supporters after what looked like a knee injury, but he could be in line to make his first Premier League start against Marco Silva’s side.
The Uruguayan midfielder has endured a slow start to life at Arsenal, having been kept out of the team by fellow summer signing Matteo Guendouzi so far.
