Arsenal midfielder Granit Xhaka has jumped to the defence of team-mate Nicolas Pepe and urged the winger to 'come back stronger' following his red card at Leeds on Sunday.
Pepe was sent off by referee Anthony Taylor for a moment of madness at Elland Road where he was caught headbutting Ezgjan Alioski during an off the ball incident.
The Ivorian winger, who has struggled for form at the Emirates since his big-money move from Lille in the summer of 2019, will now miss three matches, including next month's north London derby against Tottenham.
