Laurent Koscielny’s rehab may have a turn for the worse after he limped off early during U21 clash against Portsmouth.
The French defender suffered a horrific injury in the semi-final of the Europa League last season, rupturing his Achilles tendon and missing out on a place in France's World Cup squad as a result.
After long lasting rehabilitation he was hoping to get a full 90 minutes against Portsmouth but his night came to a premature end a he went off with six minutes to play.
The young Gunners lost the game 2-1 against the League One leaders, but Koscielny's departure from the field will be a concern.
