The Spaniard revealed attempts to have the centre-back see out the remainder of the match proved futile as he had to be replaced.

"He wasn't comfortable. We tried for 10 or 15 minutes but he could not carry on which is strange for Gabi," The Sun quoted Arteta saying.

"So we are a bit concerned about that because normally he's not one who wants to leave the pitch," he added.
