Arsenal manager Arteta admits Martinelli injury worry

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has admitted he is concerned about Gabriel Martinelli after Monday's loss to Everton.

The Brazilian had to be withdrawn in the second-half as Everton came from behind to win 2-1.

And Arteta confirmed a hamstring injury was the cause of Martinelli's substitution.

Asked about the severity of the injury, Arteta told reporters: "I don't know we will have to assess him.

"He felt something in his hamstring so I'm not very positive about it."
