Arsenal's Emmanuel Frimpong ruled out for nine months
Arsenal have been dealt a second successive injury blow with the news the promising midfielder Emmanuel Frimpong will be out for most of the season after tearing his knee ligaments.
The 18-year-old – who was born in Ghana and who moved to London when he was nine – suffered the injury while training with the reserves in Dublin where the squad are taking part in a friendly tournament with Shamrock Rovers and Manchester United's second string.
The news was confirmed just a day after Arsenal announced the winger Samir Nasri will be sidelined for a month following minor surgery on his injured knee.
Frimpong, who helped Arsenal Under-18s win the Premier Academy League title last season, started alongside fellow teenager Jack Wilshere in central midfield for each of Arsenal's final three pre-season friendlies, against Milan, Celtic and Legia Warsaw.
