Arsenal forward Noni Madueke left Wembley with significant strapping on left wrist yesterday Arsenal attacker Noni Madueke left Wembley Stadium yesterday with a significant strapping on his left wrist after playing with a cast, according to journalist Ryan Taylor. The Gunners star came off the bench for the Emirates Stadium club as manager Mikel Arteta attempted to chase the game after his side went 2-0 down to Manchester City. Madueke could not influence the proceedings, losing the final of the Carabao Cup as Arsenal’s quadruple hopes ended.
He is expected to join the Three Lions for their friendly games against Uruguay and Japan during the international break. England will continue to monitor the Gunners forward, who picked up the knock during an accidental collision with a youth-team player in training on Friday but trained as normal the next day. Eberechi Eze, Jurrien Timber and William Saliba have all pulled out of international duty due to injuries but Madueke is expected to be fine to play.
However, the Three Lions are unlikely to risk his fitness if the wrist is not fully healed in the coming days. Arsenal need the Englishman fit and firing after the international break and would prefer to hold on to him.
