Key Nottingham Forest stars could miss Arsenal game while duo are ruled out

Morgan Gibbs-White and Nikola Milenkovic are both doubts for Nottingham Forest’s Premier League clash with Arsenal, Oliver Glasner says.

Milenkovic has missed the last few weeks with a hamstring issue and bone bruising but returned to training on Friday and could make the matchday squad.

“Nikola trained for the first time today, so we will see how he reacts,” Glasner said.

“He could be in the matchday squad, but let’s see because he has been out for several weeks.”

Gibbs-White is also a concern after suffering a minor muscle injury against Crystal Palace.

“Morgan Gibbs-White is doubtful,” Glasner said.

“He couldn’t train the entire week with us, but it looks like he can join tomorrow’s session, and he had an individual session today with our rehab coaches.

“He suffered a minor muscle injury at Palace, so we have to see how he reacts today and how he deals with tomorrow’s session. Then I will take the final decision.”

Glasner remains hopeful the England international will be available and does not believe the problem is too serious.

“It doesn’t seem too serious, so there is a chance he will be available,” he added.

Nicolò Savona and Igor Jesus will definitely miss the game, meanwhile.
