    As a result, Bentancur will be free to play in the north London derby on Sunday and there is also better news for Postecoglou in terms of injuries.

    Elsewhere, Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglou said Rodrigo Bentancur has acknowledged his mistake and pleaded for leniency towards the Uruguayan over an allegedly racist comment made about teammate Son Heung-min.

    Gabriel Jesus has returned to training in a timely fitness boost for Arteta, but Italian defender Riccardo Calafiori is a doubt after picking up a calf injury on international duty.
  • PRVW
    A trip to the Tottenham Hotspur stadium kicks off a daunting run of three tough away games in eight days. Arsenal face Europa League winners Atalanta on Thursday in the Champions League before a showdown against City.
  • PRVW
    Arteta has led Arsenal to second-place finishes in each of the past two seasons but he must come up with a masterplan to avoid leaving his side with an early mountain to climb in the title race.

    However, there was some good news for Arsenal as Arteta signed a new three-year deal on Thursday.
