Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has revealed that
defender Bacary Sagna will be sidelined until December due to an
ankle injury.
The France international was stretchered off in the 2-0
home defeat to Aston Villa on Saturday and Wenger has confirmed he
is set for a spell on the sidelines.
"Yes, it is serious," said Wenger on the club's official
website. "He will be out for a few weeks, he has an injured
ankle."
Sagna will miss France's friendly against Uruguay in Paris on
Wednesday and should also be absent for Arsenal's Premier League
trips to Manchester City and Chelsea.
The 25-year-old could also miss the Carling Cup quarter-final
against Burnley on 2nd December.
