LONDON: Arsenal striker Olivier Giroud has been ruled out of Saturday’s Premier League derby against Tottenham Hotspur due to a thigh injury, manager Arsene Wenger said on Thursday. Giroud, who has scored once in 10 league appearances this season, netted in France’s friendly win over Wales last Friday. “Giroud picked up an injury, I don’t think he will be available,” Wenger told reporters. “It’s short term, we have to assess him on Monday.” Arsenal striker Danny Welbeck (groin) and defender Shkodran Mustafi (thigh) will undergo late fitness tests.
