"Arsenal expect Noni Madueke to miss about six to eight weeks with the knee injury sustained in the 1-1 draw with Manchester City on Sunday. However, the 23-year-old England international is not believed to have suffered an anterior cruciate ligament injury. The summer signing from Chelsea was substituted at half-time of the Premier League match with City and has been undergoing tests to discover the severity of the problem."
"Sources are indicating medics are waiting for the swelling to subside before making a definitive diagnosis on the injury, but it is understood that Madueke will be sidelined for a minimum of six weeks, though that timescale is thought to be the best-case scenario. If the initial prognosis is confirmed, Madueke will not return to action until November at the earliest,"
Noni Madueke suffered a knee injury in Arsenal's 1-1 draw with Manchester City and is expected to miss around six to eight weeks. The 23-year-old is not believed to have torn his anterior cruciate ligament. Madueke was substituted at half-time and has been undergoing tests while medics wait for swelling to subside before a definitive diagnosis. The club expects a minimum six-week absence, with a best-case return in November. He will miss England's upcoming matches against Wales and Latvia and could miss World Cup qualifiers against Serbia and Albania. The injury is a significant setback after a promising start to the season.
