Mikel Arteta has revealed there is a “chance” Leandro Trossard is fit to face Chelsea on Sunday as leaders Arsenal prepare to travel to Stamford Bridge for a top-of-the-table Premier League clash.
Trossard scored the opening goal of Arsenal’s 4-1 win over Tottenham last weekend as the Gunners went six points clear at the top of the table but the forward then took a knock in the win over Bayern Munich in the Champions League on Wednesday night.
Arteta could also be boosted by the availability of Martin Odegaard and Viktor Gyokeres, who are yet to return from their own injury lay-offs, but he said Trossard has not yet been ruled out.
"With Leo, there is another test today,” Arteta said. “We have to see how he is feeling. It doesn't look much. We still have a few hours and we have to wait and see. There is a potential chance.”
