Gabon striker Aubameyang has been sick after his inception with the London club on the deadline transfer day.

“Aubameyang was sick as well, we have to assess him today. Welbeck is not completely back from injury, he is not ready,” the Frenchman added.

Wenger also said that there is every possibility that his newly acquired midfielder Henrikh Mkhitaryan will start against the Sam Allardyce-managed side.
