  WHAT HAPPENED?

  The 29-year-old missed Arsenal's 5-1 Carabao Cup win over Bolton on Wednesday, with 16-year-old Jack Porter deputising in his place. The former Brentford star played in the 2-2 draw against Manchester City last weekend but reportedly left the Etihad with an apparent limp after picking up an issue during the game. Now, he is in a race against time to face Leicester on Saturday.

  THE BIGGER PICTURE

  Raya has been Arsenal's undisputed number one keeper for the best part of a year now, and in that time he has become a vital part of manager Mikel Arteta's team. If the ex-Blackburn Rovers man isn't fit, that could hand Bournemouth loanee Neto his debut. When asked if Raya would be available this weekend, Arteta said after the Bolton victory: "We don't know yet."

• DID YOU KNOW?

  Raya began his senior career at Blackburn before having spells at non-league side Southport, Brentford and then Arsenal. He has since racked up eight caps for Spain after making his debut in 2022.
