Mikel Arteta has provided an injury update on William Saliba ahead of Arsenal's Sunday game against Newcastle.
Saliba has missed the Gunners' recent games due to back injury.
The Gunners face the Magpies in an away league game on Sunday, May 7, 2023.
"Not a lot of progress. He’s feeling better every day but he’s not been able still to have any activity around the first team so we don’t expect him to be with us," said Arteta during a press-conference.
"We are not there yet today, because we're always hopeful and players are pushing to play. If that's the case at some stage we'll announce it. But hopefully that’s not the case," the Gunners head coach added when asked about Saliba being ruled out for the season.
