Arsene Wenger has confirmed that Spanish defender Hector Bellerin will miss the Gunners’ Champions League clash with Bayern Munich on Wednesday.
The full-back was not part of the travelling party that flew to Munich on Tuesday afternoon, because he’s struggling with a groin strain. French defender Mathieu Debuchy is set to deputise.
“From Saturday we lost [Hector] Bellerin who will not be available tomorrow,” said Wenger.
“We have to wait. It’s not a big problem, but a small groin problem.
“I have confidence and trust in him
[Debuchy]. Physically, he should be ready.”
The 20-year-old becomes the ninth member of Wenger’s first-team squad on the sidelines, including England pair Theo Walcott and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain.
