4 Arsenal players must be quarantined due to COVID-19, missed the English Super Cup match

TAM NGUYÊN |

Coach Mikel Arteta does not have many personnel to choose from when 4 Arsenal players are infected with COVID-19 before the Super Cup match against Liverpool.

Tomorrow night (22:30 on August 29), Arsenal and Liverpool will " Score" for the new season with the Community Shield match, also known as the English Super Cup. Liverpool are Premier League champions, while Arsenal are FA Cup champions.

This year, the players have very little time to rest because the 2019-20 season is long, and the impact of the COVID-19 epidemic has been greatly affected, both directly and indirectly.

For Arsenal, 4 of their players will not be able to attend the match at Wembley due to a late return to training due to isolation. Goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez has been quarantined after his holiday in Portugal. In fact, the Argentine goalkeeper's quarantine period has expired, but due to his late return to training, he will find it difficult to start.

Martinez has performed very well at the end of last season when Bernd Leno was injured and in this situation, the position in goal will have to be returned to the German goalkeeper.

Another was Gabriel Magalhaes. The Sun reported that the 22-year-old centre-back is on a hiatus in England pending a £25 million transfer from Lille. According to Daily Mail, the identities of two other players in the quarantine have not been disclosed.

The English Super Cup takes place 2 weeks before the new Premier League season starts (12.9), so coach Mikel Arteta believes that this weekend is not the right time to organize a match.

We are trying to adapt and try to be in the best condition for the match on Saturday. The new team only has 2 training sessions and this match comes right in the middle of the new season preparation, so it is not ideal for much, Arteta admitted.
