Norwich City head coach Daniel Farke has revealed that Alex Tettey will not be available to face Arsenal on Sunday.
The midfielder, who has captained the side in recent weeks, is out due to “family reasons” after playing the full 90 minutes in their 2-0 win over Everton last weekend.

READ ARSENAL VERDICT
Whilst Arsenal are suffering from instability off the pitch following the sacking of Unai Emery this week, it appears as though Norwich could suffer on the pitch with the loss of their captain. It is never easy going away to a team fighting for their lives, though, and Arsenal know that they cannot go into the game with any complaceny.
Norwich are in the bottom three, but did pull off an incredible 3-2 win over Manchester City earlier this season and Arsenal need to make sure that they do not become another scalp for Farke’s team. Freddie Ljungberg needs to have the team fired up and ready to fight, as Norwich may look to make the game a scrap to stop the likes of Mesut Ozil, Alexandre Lacazette and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang finding space.
