Henrikh Mkhitaryan: Arsenal midfielder out for up to six weeks with broken foot
Last updated on .From the section Arsenal
Arsenal midfielder Henrikh Mkhitaryan has been ruled out for up to six weeks with a broken foot.
Mkhitaryan, 29, was replaced at half-time during the Carabao Cup quarter-final loss to Tottenham and missed the Premier League win over Burnley.
The Gunners say the Armenia international has a "fractured metatarsal in his right foot".
Mkhitaryan has scored four goals and provided three assists for the Emirates Stadium side this season.
He joins an Arsenal injury list which also includes striker Danny Welbeck and defender Rob Holding, neither of whom are expected to return until the 2019-20 campaign.

When he moved to United he was hapless at least 50% of the time, but still
managed to shine occasionally despite Mourinho doing his best to prevent it.
The swap was a mistake in hindsight because as a Man United fan I'd swap him back for Sanchez now in a heartbeat he'd be great under Solskjaer.
It's a pity. Get well soon.
... Sorry I'll get my coat
As an MU fan I have to ask - is it because he's a former MU player?
Or is talking about how well Arsenal are doing with Ozil and their new manager too boring compared to the drama you guys tend to report on that comes out of Old Trafford?
This is a ridiculous run of bad luck.
Someone up there got scared at the recent success and decided to put the mockers on us.
I feel sorry for the lad as it was a nasty knock in a competitive derby game with Spurs. I wish him a speedy recovery. From a Spurs fan.
Merry Christmas N17 - you're sad enough to need one!!!
Get well soon Henrikh you have more talent and class in that broken bone bone than any of the haters.
Out of the top 6 teams playing - surprise, surprise: he's gone for a draw with Brighton, and every other team to win: what is his problem?
Time for Emery to prove him wrong - again.
Bring it on!
There are a huge bunch of children on tonight, you the biggest of them all. I mean, Christmas Eve and still you spill your bile.
I tell you what. Don’t set your alarm tonight. You ain’t getting a visit from Santa tomorrow. He doesn’t reward trolls
