Torreiras season could be over at arsenal as he faces up to 10 weeks out with ankle fracture
It looks like Arsenal's Portuguese midfielder, Torreira, might be facing a significant setback. According to reports, he's suffered an ankle fracture and could be out for up to 10 weeks.
This is a big blow for Arsenal, as Torreira has been a key player for the team this season. His absence will likely be felt, especially in midfield, where he's been providing a strong defensive presence and helping to control the tempo of the game.
The 10-week timeline is a rough estimate, but it's likely that Torreira will miss a significant chunk of the season. This could impact Arsenal's chances in the Premier League and Europa League, as well as their ability to compete in the FA Cup.
It's worth noting that ankle fractures can be a tricky injury to recover from, especially if there's any ligament damage involved. Torreira will need to undergo a thorough rehabilitation program to ensure he's fully fit and ready to return to action.
In the meantime, Arsenal will need to rely on other midfielders to fill the void left by Torreira's absence. This could be an opportunity for players like Ceballos, Xhaka, or even younger players like Elneny or Willock to step up and make an impact.
Let's hope Torreira makes a speedy recovery and is back on the pitch soon!
