"Gabriel, unfortunately, picked up an injury with the Brazilian national team and he's going to be out for weeks," said manager Mikel Arteta. "We need to have another scan - I think it's next Wednesday - and we'll have the timeline probably much more clear than we have at the moment." Piero Hincapie and Cristhian Mosquera are both in contention to deputise for Gabriel against Spurs.

Arsenal defender Gabriel has not travelled with the Brazil squad for their friendly against Tunisia in France after scans confirmed a thigh injury.

LEVERKUSEN, Germany -- Bayer Leverkusen forward Malik Tillman will be out for another two weeks after returning from international duty with the United States with a thigh injury. The Bundesliga club said Sunday that an examination in Leverkusen determined the full extent of the injury and layoff period. The 23-year-old Tillman felt a cramp in the thigh while training with the U.S. last Monday, causing him to miss the team's friendly win over Australia and Leverkusen's 4-3 away win over Mainz in the Bundesliga on Saturday.
