Takehiro Tomiyasu has struggled with injuries in the last few seasons, and that is one reason he has not played many games for Arsenal.
A setback he suffered at the beginning of the campaign forced Mikel Arteta to make Ben White his first-choice right-back and the Japanese star has been struggling to start since then.
His country selected him in their squad for the Qatar 2022 FIFA World Cup and fielded him off the bench against Germany in their first game.
The defender did well, but it has now been revealed he suffered another injury setback after the game.
A report on Sport Bible reveals the defender missed his country’s training on Thursday because of a thigh problem.
This is the latest injury setback he has suffered and it remains unclear if it is serious or if he will be back soon.
Just Arsenal Opinion
Tomi is one of the finest players in our squad and needs to fix his fitness problems quickly.
The full-back has missed so many matches because he is unfit and we need to get him in better shape as quickly as possible.
Hopefully, this will not be a long-term problem and he will be fit to play for Japan again at the World Cup.
Will be time to move him on soon.
He’s no good to us being injured all the time.
History shows he is injury prone through his playing career.
Could turn into a bad signing.
You are cruel to Tomi. An injury is not someone’s choice. It can happen to anyone.
Tomiyasu has injury problems not fitness problems. Fitness can be helped and it is an insult to suggest he has let that happen. He is a model pro and a good man. Journalism requires facts and good command of the language.
Well said.
How can the writer say he needs to sort his injury issues out, like he has some magic wand to cure his problems. Some players when they arrive in the PL struggle because of the intensity
The writer should ask himself when he catches the flu does he blame himself for catching it, or if he has ever hurt himself did he bring it upon himself
You guys are forgetting that Jack Wilsher had similar issues….
Thats not so bad he will be back ijust wish you goodluck in your career
I wish you quick recovery Tomi you have shown us how important your at arsenal squad at the moment all the best.
