Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger confirmed to the club website that winger Theo Walcott will not be available for the weekend match against Swansea City due to a calf injury and could need two more weeks to fully recover.


The English international has missed the last few weeks recovering from what was initially thought to be a knock, but Walcott couldn't train fully with the club this week as the injury has yet to heal fully.

"He is one of the players who doesn’t come back. But he was not rested last week, he was injured. He is now out for three-and-a-half weeks, and I think he will not be available for Burnley. He will need another week, two more weeks.
on whether he is worried that Walcott has been out longer than expected.

"Not concerned, because it was at the start a little calf problem, but he was not comfortable when he started to train again and we had to pull him out again."
