Unai Emery Says 'I Don't Know' If Granit Xhaka Will Play for Arsenal Again

Arsenal manager Unai Emery said he does not know if Granit Xhaka will play for the club again and revealed he has had discussions with the club about the possibility of him leaving in January.

Arsenal stripped Xhaka of the captaincy after he swore at fans when they jeered him off the pitch in the Gunners' 2-2 draw with Crystal Palace in October.

Per Goal's Charles Watts, Emery said: "I don't know if he's going to play again. If he is available in his mind to continue helping us and continuing defending the Arsenal shirt, I think time gives us that solution.
