Arsenal’s head coach, Mikel Arteta, faces the looming threat of a suspension ahead of their pivotal showdown against Everton, with the possibility of being banned if he incurs a booking in this Sunday’s match against Manchester United.
As the Gunners navigate the final stretch of the season, Arteta finds himself treading carefully on the brink of potential disciplinary action.
With just two fixtures remaining, Arsenal holds a precarious one-point lead in the Premier League title race, albeit having played one game more than Manchester City.
Arteta’s predicament is compounded by his existing disciplinary record, having already accumulated five yellow cards throughout the campaign.
Should he receive another caution at Old Trafford, Arteta would be relegated to the sidelines for the crucial clash against Everton, unable to offer his tactical guidance from the touchline.
This isn’t Arteta’s first brush with suspension this season. Earlier in the campaign, the 42-year-old was sidelined for Arsenal’s encounter against Aston Villa following his third booking of the season, a consequence of an earlier caution in a victory over Luton Town.
As Arsenal aims to maintain their lead in the title race, Arteta’s ability to navigate the high-stakes encounter against Manchester United without attracting disciplinary action will be paramount to their aspirations of securing silverware.
