Arsenal head coach Jonas Eidevall has confirmed Leah Williamson will miss Thursday s Women s Champions League second-round tie against Hacken due to concussion protocol.
Williamson did not feature in the Gunners 2-2 draw with Manchester City on Sunday, and is one of three absentees unavailable for the must-win game with Hacken at Meadow Park.
Eidevall also revealed that both Steph Catley and Lina Hurtig will also miss the game against the Swedish side.
The visitors hold a 1-0 advantage going into the second leg, with Tabitha Tindell s goal enough for the victory at the Bravida Arena last week.
I don t have a timeframe on Leah s injury at the moment. It s guided by our medical team, Eidevall said.
When I have something more concrete to communicate, I will do that. She sustained the concussion during an incident in training.
If we don t qualify, I would definitely consider that a failure. We need to get into the groups.
