Arsenal waiting for Debuchy injury news

Arsenal will learn today the extent of Mathieu Debuchy's ankle injury.

The £12million French international was stretchered off with 10 minutes left of the 2-2 draw with Manchester City on Saturday lunchtime, after going over horribly on his ankle.

Speaking after the game, Gunners boss Arsene Wenger revealed that Debuchy will undergo further tests on Sunday, before knowing definitively how long he'll be without the former Newcastle man for.

"Debuchy has a badly strained ankle," explained Wenger.

"It's very difficult [to tell how long he will be out]. Medical people told me they need 24 hours more to assess him really well."
