Mikel Arteta has provided an update on whether Arsenal will appeal William Saliba's red card card against Bournemouth.

The Frenchman was sent off in the first half for denying a clear goalscoring opportunity after a tug on Evanilson close to the halfway line.

Saliba had been initially booked for the foul but the decision was overturned after referee Rob Jones was recommended to do an on field review.

Arsenal went on to suffer a 2-0 defeat at the Vitality Stadium, with Ryan Christie and Justin Kluivert securing a famous win for Bournemouth
