Mustafi, Bellerin, Leno & Arsenal’s latest team news ahead of Chelsea clash in FA Cup final

Arsenal will on Saturday face Chelsea at the Wembley Stadium in the Emirates FA Cup final and the North London club has released their latest team news with updates about many players including Shkodran Mustafi, Hector Bellerin and Bernd Leno. The club released the latest team news on their official website.

Hector Bellerin was not included in the matchday squad that played against Watford due to tightness in right calf and there were a lot of worries among the Arsenal fanbase that the right back would miss the final since it is just a few days away. The latest team news released by Arsenal has revealed that Bellerin has returned to training with the rest of his teammates and so he will obviously be in the squad that faces Chelsea in the Emirates FA Cup final.

Shkodran Mustafi sustained a hamstring injury in the game against Manchester City some time back and the club has confirmed that the German centre back underwent a small procedure on his right hamstring on Saturday and so this will see him only be able to return to full training in October. Mustafi will be missed in the FA Cup final as he was fully trusted by Mikel Arteta.
