Conor Henderson looks set to be sidelined for up to six months with a knee injury.
The 19-year old Arsenal midfielder sustained a cruciate ligament injury in the club’s 2-1 pre-season win over German club FC Koln and will now miss at least half a year with manager Arsene Wenger and the player himself confirming the bad news.
“Conor has a knee injury and it looks as if it is a cruciate. That means unfortunately that he will be out for six months at the very least,” Wenger told the club’s official website.
Henderson added on his Twitter account: “I have damaged my ACL and lateral meniscus and will miss rest of season. I’m absolutely devastated but am determined to come back stronger!”
