ARSENAL DEFENDER, HECTOR BELLERIN SET TO MISS NOVEMBER FIXTURES.


Arsenal have been hit with an injury blow, as  Hector Bellerin is set to miss the remainder of the club's November program through injury.

Bellerin, 21, was forced to withdraw from the Spain Under-21 squad earlier this week, after picking up an injury in training.

Concerns over Bellerin's fitness were raised last week when he was left out of the Champions League squad to face Ludogorets.

However, Gunners boss- Arsene Wenger, returned the Spaniard to the starting line-up at the weekend, where he played the full 90 minutes in the 1-1 draw with north London rivals Tottenham.

Bellerin, as reported by IB times, sustained ankle ligament damage during training with Spain Under-21 team on Tuesday.

Medical tests have reportedly confirmed that the ligament damage will see him spend up to three weeks at the treatment table.

That means he will most likely miss the remainder of Arsenal's November fixtures, including the upcoming clash with Manchester United at Old Trafford and the visit of PSG in the Champions League fixture.
