Mikel Arteta has told Sokratis he is not part of his plans for Arsenal.

The Greek defender has played just one minute of football since the restart.

And football.london says Arteta has informed him that he will likely not play significant games under his management.

The Spaniard is concerned with Sokratis' ability to play out from the back, which is a major component of his tactical plan.

Nonetheless, the 32-year-old is determined to change Arteta's mind and has no plans to leave the club this summer.

The former Borussia Dortmund man is under contract until 2021.
