Arsenal's Cazorla tweets support to injured Villarreal defender

Arsenal midfielder Santi Cazorla is among a number of players to have offered support to Villarreal defender Mateo Musacchio following his serious leg injury. The Argentinian fractured his fibula and dislocated his left ankle during his side's 1-1 La Liga draw at Getafe on Sunday.

The 24-year-old underwent successful surgery hours later in Madrid.

Cazorla, who played with Musacchio during his time at Villarreal, tweeted: "A lot of best wishes to my friend Mateo, I hope it's not too serious.

"Wishing you all the strength for the recovery."
