Arsenal travel to Carrow Road on Sunday in order to take on Norwich City in the Premier League and the new interim boss could be without a few of his key players.
Freddie Ljungberg has been appointed as the new interim coach at the club and as per the latest reports, he will have some sorting out to do especially in his defensive line on Sunday.
Defenders David Luiz and Shkodran Mustafi both picked up knocks during Arsenal’s game vs Eintracht and right now they remain a doubt for the match against the Canaries.
Luiz is recovering from a bruised rib while Mustafi has a bruised foot and both these players will be assessed before Sunday’s game but if they do not make themselves available then it could be serious troubles for Ljungberg.
While the pairing of Chambers and Sokratis can start the match but the coach will not be left with any significant backing on the bench.
And if these injuries weren’t enough then Hector Bellerin has a tight hamstring and will have to go through a late fitness test on Sunday at Carrow Road.
Here are the injury updates provided by Arsenal Football Club:
David Luiz

Shkodran Mustafi
