Nasri setback for Gunners

22 January 2009
The French international midfielder suffered a fractured fibula during Tuesday morning's training session at Arsenal's training camp in Austria.
Nasri is expected to be out of action for up to three months.
The loss of Nasri will be a blow to Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger after his impressive first season at the Emirates following a £15.8million transfer from Marseille.
Nasri scored four minutes into his debut in a win against West Brom and went on to bag seven goals all season.
But the 22-year-old's absence will be eased by the return to fitness of midfielder Tomas Rosicky.
The Czech international has been troubled by a hamstring tendon injury but is expected to be ready for the start of the new campaign after playing his first game for the club in 18 months against Barnet at the weekend.
