In the last training match against Tottenham, where Arsenal fell 1-0, Alexandre Lacazette and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang were present from the start.
On Friday night, Brentford await away in the Premier League’s first match. Just hours before kick-off, The Athletic writes that the Gunners went on two tough shots. Both Lacazette and Aubameyang are said to miss the match due to illness.
Thomas Partey, Eddie Nketiah and Gabriel Magalhaes are already on Arsenal’s injury list.
Last season, Aubameyang scored 15 goals in 39 games – and was sometimes heavily criticized for his efforts. Lacazette scored 13 goals in 31 PL matches
Last season, Arsenal finished eighth in the league.
???? Arsenal captain Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang + fellow striker Alexandre Lacazette are both unwell & therefore will not be available for their side’s opening game of the new Premier League season at Brentford tonight @TheAthleticUK #AFC #BrentfordFC #BREARS https://t.co/RFFL2fWNPH
