The injury occurred late in the first half of the 1-1 draw. Madueke was spotted holding his right knee after a challenge and appeared in visible discomfort.

Despite attempts to continue, he did not emerge for the second half, with Bukayo Saka coming on in his place. Arsenal’s medical staff immediately scheduled further assessments, with scans taking place on Monday.

The 23-year-old has become an important figure in Arteta’s rotation, offering pace and versatility across the front line.

His injury comes at a critical time, with Arsenal competing in both the Premier League and the Champions League, where squad depth is already being tested.

As reported by The Standard, the winger is being closely monitored, and the club expect to release an official update during Arteta’s press conference on Tuesday.
