Mikel Arteta will not be able to lead the "Arsenal" team in the upcoming matches. It has been officially announced that the Spaniard has tested positive for coronavirus. M. Arteta will certainly not be able to lead the team in the matches against "Manchester City" in their own stadium, and there is a question mark regarding the first semi-final match with the "Liverpool" team in the League Cup. Prior to this, coronavirus was detected in the "Premier" League for "Crystal Palace" and "Aston Villa" managers: Patrick Vieira and Steven Gerrard. M. Arteta, in fact, is now infected with the coronavirus for the second time. In 2020, the season was suspended after the Spaniard was one of the first to contract this virus.
