Leno\u2019s screams of pain were audible through the artificial crowd noise.<\/p>\n<p>Despite initial fears of a long-term knee injury and ligament rupture, which would have cost Leno both the restart and next year, Arsenal issued an update that Leno\u2019s testing came back favourably after detailed assessments. He is dealing with a &#8220;moderate ligament sprain&#8221;, which translates as a grade 2 moderate ligament tear, and he is expected to return to training in four to six weeks.<\/p>\n<p>This is overall extremely good news for a club that has been in dire need of such. Leno will miss the restart but should be very much 100% for the start of the 2020\/21 Premier League season.<\/p>\n<p>For a deeper look into Leno\u2019s injury, return timeline, and possible impact on his career, see the following video:<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Bernd Leno injury | Explaining his knee ligament tear &amp; career impact\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/3XqbttyRYNU?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h2><b>Granit Xhaka (Arsenal)<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Arsenal medical update also announced that midfielder Granit Xhaka was back in training after being stretchered off in the opening minutes of Arsenal\u2019s game vs Manchester City with an inversion (inwards) ankle sprain.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">His return to training indicates his injury was very likely a mild grade 1 sprain, which has an average return to play of 7-10 days. A fit Xhaka would provide the Gunners with a much-needed midfield boost on Thursday against Southampton.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Gabriel Martinelli (Arsenal)<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The final key piece of news in Arsenal\u2019s recent update was that young rising star Gabriel Martinelli suffered cartilage damage to his right knee in training. The Athletic provided more details, stating that the team suspects meniscus damage with the player set to have more scans and meet with a specialist to determine the specifics.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If the injury is in fact a meniscus injury and requires surgery, the Brazilian striker will assuredly be out for the rest of the restart and his return timing for next season dependent on surgery specifics.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>James Milner (Liverpool)<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1148602\" src=\"https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2020\/06\/24164851\/1148595_1148595_PA-54250670-min-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"James Milner injury\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1752\" srcset=\"https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2020\/06\/24164851\/1148595_1148595_PA-54250670-min-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2020\/06\/24164851\/1148595_1148595_PA-54250670-min-300x205.jpg 300w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2020\/06\/24164851\/1148595_1148595_PA-54250670-min-1024x701.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2020\/06\/24164851\/1148595_1148595_PA-54250670-min-768x526.jpg 768w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2020\/06\/24164851\/1148595_1148595_PA-54250670-min-1536x1051.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2020\/06\/24164851\/1148595_1148595_PA-54250670-min-2048x1402.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2020\/06\/24164851\/1148595_1148595_PA-54250670-min-66x45.jpg 66w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to manager Jurgen Klopp<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, Milner has a minor tweak in his hamstring, the same issue he\u2019s dealt with multiple times this season, having missed eight games in total across two injury spells in 2020.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Unfortunately for Milner and Liverpool football club, hamstring re-injuries are very common with <a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/14754854\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">nearly 30% of athletes<\/a> re-injuring the hamstring within the first two weeks back and facing increased re-injury risk for nearly a year.
