Szczesny ruled out for three months with double arm fracture

Arsenal’s Polish goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny will be out for around three months after fracturing both of his arms in a training ground incident on Monday. The ‘keeper was preparing for the Reserves friendly with Norwich but damaged his radii and is now expected to be out until February.

It has been a frustrating season for Szczesny who has played just three games for Arsenal this season, two for the Reserves and one for the under-18s.

A full preview of the under-18s trip to Crystal Palace will be available tomorrow.
