"The minimum is three (weeks) and the maximum is six. I'm not expert enough to know, is an injury two degree hamstring, so say four weeks," said Arsene Wenger, manager of Arsenal.
Arsenal midfielder Mesut Özil will be sidelined three to six weeks with an injury to the back of the thigh, it was announced today at a press conference coach, Frenchman Arsene Wenger, Efe reported.
"The minimum is three (weeks) and the maximum is six. I'm not expert enough to know, is a two-grade lesion in the hamstring, so say four weeks," Wenger said.
The German, 25 and the most expensive signing in the history of Arsenal, was injured in the second leg of the second round of Champions League against Bayern Munich played in Germany on Tuesday in which the "gunners" were eliminated from European competition.
The former Real Madrid was replaced after the break by Czech Tomas Rosicky and, as previously reported technical "gunner" after the meeting, said first diagnosed a tear in the hamstring of the leg.
Wenger confirmed today that the player would be out of the meeting of the Premier on Sunday against Tottenham in the north London derby.
"Of course it is a blow, but I'm sure that we have the quality to meet the party without him (Özil.) We have many creative players who can create quality show," he said in French.
