Their star striker was spotted training with the team, which is &#8220;excellent news for Arsenal&#8221; after he missed the start of the season due to knee discomfort. The Brazil international had to undergo a surgical procedure to rectify the issue.

He suffered a knee injury while playing for Brazil in Qatar at the 2022 FIFA World Cup. As a result, the striker missed almost three months of club football action. It is not clear if he will be able to make the squad for the London derby against Fulham on August 26.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>There are many claiming that mounting <a href=\"https:\/\/extratimetalk.com\/fifa-might-be-harming-its-players-and-something-needs-to-be-done\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">injuries should be addressed by FIFA<\/a> as compact schedules are doing players harm.<\/p>\n<h3><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Arsenal\u2019s Other Injury Woes<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The North London club suffered another setback at the beginning of the season when new signing Jurrien Timber went off with a knee injury during his official debut.
