Mikel Arteta has confirmed that Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang will again be unavailable for selection this weekend.
Arsenal travel to Leeds on Saturday evening but Aubameyang will be absent once more after having the captaincy taken off him.
Arteta took action after striker Aubameyang failed to report back in time for a Covid test after travelling to France with his manager’s permission to visit his unwell mother.
Aubameyang missed Arsenal’s victory over Southampton last weekend and then the midweek win against West Ham after losing the armband and his exile is set to continue at Elland Road.
