Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger denies Nicklas Bendtner has downed tools.
The out-of-favour Arsenal striker has been staying in his native Denmark after being disciplined following a boozy night out in Copenhagen without club permission.
Gunners boss Wenger said: "He is injured - a hamstring."
Bendtner, a free agent this summer, also claimed on Instagram that he will return to training on Monday.
He wrote: "Making sure every detail is looked at, the alignment has to be perfect! Back in London on Monday strong as ad ox and ready to train! #doublesessions #8to6 #hillruns"
