AI-generated editorial illustration.

The Standard reports that Ezri Konsa has returned to Arsenal early after withdrawing from England’s squad with a knock. Thomas Tuchel said Konsa and Alex Scott picked up injuries in the win over Croatia, and the defender was sent back to his club for further assessment.

The newspaper says the issue is not believed to be serious, but it is still unclear whether Konsa will be fit enough to face Leeds this weekend. That leaves Arsenal with a late availability question rather than a confirmed long-term absence.

What remains unconfirmed

  • Whether Konsa will be available against Leeds is not yet known.
  • The report does not give a confirmed return date.
  • The exact medical diagnosis is not specified.
