Lukas Podolski out of action for three weeks

Arsenal winger Lukas Podolski is out of action for three weeks owing to a hamstring injury.

As reported by BBC, Arsene Wenger said: “We paid a heavy price on the injury front because we lost Podolski. He’s definitely out for 21 days.”

Podolski recieved the knock in a Champions League play-off match against Fenerbahce which Arsenal eventually won 2-0.

Along with Podolski, Aaron Ramsey and Jack Wilshere also got injured. But the other two players are due to return soon.

Wenger further added: “I don’t know how bad Ramsey is. I don’t know how Wilshere responds. We have to check that [on Wednesday] morning.

“The two tackles on Wilshere were disappointing, but he looks all right. Jack should be all right for Sunday.

“I’m hopeful on Aaron as well. I took him off with three or four minutes to go, but I don’t know how bad it is. He wanted to stay on.”
