Arsenal are reportedly set to welcome defenders Riccardo Calafiori and Takehiro Tomiyasu back from injury after the international break. In October, Calafiori sustained a medial collateral ligament injury to his left knee while playing against Shakhtar in the Champions. Meanwhile, since moving to the Emirates Stadium in 2021, Tomiyasu has been dealing with a number of injuries. Most recently, the Japanese international has been sidelined due to a knee problem he suffered in July.
After the current international break, Calafiori and Tomiyasu are expected to both be available for the Gunners, according to the Daily Mail. The duo's return will be a very positive one for Arteta as the Gunners have been struggling for form amid a number of injuries. While it may be a race for both players to be fully fit to play against Forest, Arteta will be hoping to see the duo at least on the bench.
