Former Arsenal midfielder Santi Cazorla has spoken out about his injury nightmare that put the talented midfielder out of action for almost two years.
The diminutive midfield maestro was a fan favourite during his time at the Gunners. The 33-year-old picked up an innocuous-looking Achilles injury back in October 2016 and never played for Arsenal again.
The former Spain international had ten operations and was working his way back to full fitness towards the end of last season, and hoped to feature for the Gunners before the campaign ended.
Unfortunately for Cazorla, he did not and his contract with the north London club was not extended.
