'Get well soon my friend' - Ozil & Cazorla wish Welbeck the best after horror injury

The 27-year-old suffered a nasty injury when he landed awkwardly on his ankle, sparking well-wishes from his peers

Mesut Ozil and Santi Cazorla expressed their sympathy with Danny Welbeck after the Arsenal star suffered an injury in Thursday's Europa League game against Sporting.

The Arsenal forward was stretchered off in the first 30 minutes of the 0-0 draw in Portugal after landing awkwardly on his ankle following an aerial challenge with full-back Bruno Gaspar.

Gunners team-mate Matteo Guendouzi seemed visibly shaken by the incident as the medical team put an oxygen mask on Welbeck and put him on the stretcher.
