Zinchenko continues to train on an individual programme and does not even work with the ball yet

Arsenal's Ukrainian international Oleksandr Zinchenko continues to recover from a calf muscle injury, which caused him to miss the rest of last season and has yet to take part in any of his team's friendlies during the off-season training.

The 26-year-old came out for yesterday's Arsenal training session with the rest of the squad, but initially wore trainers rather than boots and ended up limiting himself to just running work.

In tomorrow's friendly match against Barcelona, Zinchenko will definitely not play. There is no information about the exact timing of the Ukrainian's return to the field.
