Arsenal FC could be without left-back Gaël Clichy for "a few weeks" because of a back injury according to manager Arsène Wenger.
Clichy out
Clichy played all 90 minutes of the Gunners' 3-0 Premier League win over Tottenham Hotspur FC on Saturday, but has been ruled out of Wednesday's UEFA Champions League Group H visit of AZ Alkmaar. Wenger confirmed that the 24-year-old faces a spell on the sidelines. "We fear a stress fracture of the back," he said. "If it is the case, he'll be out for a few weeks." Kieran Gibbs is likely to take the French international's place against AZ. Arsenal, who also lost striker Nicklas Bendtner to a groin injury against Tottenham, lead Group H by one point from Olympiacos FC.
