Arsenal striker Danny Welbeck |
Arsenal this morning announced that the striker will be out for a some 'months' after the surgery.
"Danny Welbeck has undergone surgery on his left knee after being unable to sufficiently step up his rehabilitation work," the statement read.
'The striker has been working throughout the summer to recover from the injury sustained at the end of April.
"It had been hoped he would avoid surgery but
after increasing his training workload, the injury to his cartilage did
not respond as well as hoped and the decision was taken last week for
him to undergo surgery by a leading specialist in the field.
"Danny is now expected to be out for a period of months and everyone at Arsenal wishes him well."
Welbeck's injury will add more pressure on Wenger after he failed to bring in an outfield player.
Without Welbeck, the Gunners are short of central striking options with Olivier Giroud and Theo Walcott the Arsenal manager's only first team options.
Arsenal fans are frustrated with the situation and have asked the board to investigate the lack of transfer activites.
