Arsenal news as Leeds United prepare to visit the Gunners on Saturday without one of their key players
Leeds United have been dealt a blow ahead of this weekend's Premier League clash with Arsenal.
Leeds make the 192-mile trip to north London looking to continue their escape from relegation. The Whites are currently 14th in the Premier League table, two points clear of the bottom three with 26 points after defeating Wolves 4-2 last time out.
However, their chances of coming away with a positive result at Arsenal on Saturday have taken a hit following confirmation of Tyler Adams' injury. The USMNT midfielder faces an extended period out of action after having surgery on a hamstring injury.
Adams, who has impressed since his move from RB Leipzig, sustained the problem in training earlier this month. He was forced to withdraw from the USA squad and will now be sidelined for the foreseeable future.
The 24 year-old has been a prominent part of Leeds' line-up this season, starting 24 games in the Premier League. However, his absence will leave an enormous hole in Gracia's midfield on Saturday,
