According to a report by Khaosod Online Thailand, citing information from The Telegraph, Arsenal’s new midfielder Bruno Guimarães has suffered a thigh injury that will likely keep him off the pitch for several weeks. Guimarães, who joined the club this summer from Newcastle United for a reported fee of £75 million, had already made appearances in a friendly against Como and the Community Shield victory over Manchester City.

While the exact duration of his recovery remains uncertain, reports suggest he will be sidelined for multiple weeks.
For residents and football enthusiasts in Thailand following the Premier League, this news highlights a significant setback for the Gunners early in their campaign.

Fans and observers are currently awaiting further updates from the club regarding the specific timeline for his return to full fitness. As of now, the full extent of the injury and the precise date of his return to training have not been officially confirmed by Arsenal.
