Toen hij na de wedstrijd om details werd gevraagd, bleef Arteta vaag.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe hopen dat het goed met hem is. Op dit moment is het niet mogelijk om iets te zeggen,\u201d verklaarde Arteta. \u201cWe moeten tot morgen wachten. Hij voelde iets en kon niet doorgaan, dus we moesten hem wisselen.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Het ontbreken van een duidelijke diagnose zal Arsenal-fans zorgen baren, aangezien Saliba een pilaar is geweest in hun uitdaging voor de Premier League-titel dit seizoen. Zijn mogelijke afwezigheid komt op een cruciaal moment, met de Gunners die met vijf punten aan de leiding gaan voorafgaand aan een cruciale wedstrijd tegen Crystal Palace op 19 maart 2023.<\/p>\n<p>Dit is niet de eerste keer dat Saliba's fysieke conditie een onderwerp van onzekerheid is. Eerder dit seizoen gaf de club tegenstrijdige berichten over een rugblessure, waarbij Arteta deze aanvankelijk omschreef als een \u201conschuldige blessure\u201d voordat de speler verschillende wedstrijden miste.<\/p>\n<p>Nu de titelstrijd in de Premier League intensiveert en een mogelijke titel op het spel staat, zal Arsenal de komende dagen wanhopig behoefte hebben aan duidelijkheid over de toestand van Saliba.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has provided a cryptic update on the fitness of key defender William Saliba, refusing to confirm [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":10751,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"googlesitekit_rrm_CAow_uzEDA:productID":"","site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"footnotes":""},"categories":[20,1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-10752","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-international","category-football-latest-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.6 (Yoast SEO v27.4) -
