Arsenal will be without several key players as they prepare for their first Premier League game of the season.
The Gunners take on new boys Brentford on Friday in the very first game of the 2021-2022 campaign.
Despite the optimism of having new signings in place, such as Ben White from Brighton, several key players will be out for the opening game.
Thomas Partey and Gabriel are set to miss the first few games of the season due to injury problems, per the Daily Mirror.
Eddie Nketiah is also absent with an ankle injury, which is the same issue troubling Partey.
Brazilian defender Gabriel is struggling with a knee injury he sustained during the Olympics with his nation.
