Rosicky
who is one of the most senior player at Arsenal has undergone a surgery on his
knee, according to Arsene Wenger.
The
33-year-old midfielder has been out since the start of the summer. He picked up
a knee injury while representing his country Czech Republic in the start of June.
Rosicky
was also linked with a move away from Emirates Stadium this summer, however he
signed a one year contract extension and now would be watching the games on TV.
His
agent Pavel Paska also revealed that his client could be facing more than two months on the sidelines with a knee problem.
It
was expected that the midfielder would return in the next few weeks until the
medical team found that the knee injury needs a surgery which will further
delay his return.
However,
this would not be a loss to the Gunners as he is not a regular player for them.
Meanwhile,
another midfielder Jack Wilshere is on the sidelines along with striker Danny
Welbeck who is also suffering from a knee injury.
On the other hand, full-back
Hector Bellerin has now returned and could be starting ahead of Mathieu Debuchy
in the coming game against Crystal Palace on Sunday.
The
young Spaniard was out with a muscle injury which caused him to miss the opening
game against West Ham.
