It remains to be seen how serious the injury is for the 22-year-old.

Gabriel Martinelli a big player for Arsenal
In our view, Gabriel Martinelli is one of the best young players in the Premier League and is one of the most important figures at Arsenal.
And he is just 22 now.
Martinelli has huge potential, and we believe that he will get better and better in the coming years.
The Brazil international has established himself as a key figure for Arsenal.
When fit and available, Martinelli is one of the first names on the Arsenal teamsheet.
The 22-year-old has made 98 appearances in the Premier League so far in his career.
Martinelli has scored 26 goals and given 14 assists in those games.
Arsenal have UEFA Champions League football this week and will face Tottenham Hotspur in the North London derby next weekend.
The Emirates Stadium faithful will hope that Martinelli is available for these two big fixtures.
