Alexandre Lacazette had to be substituted after a nasty fall thanks to Harry Maguire, so when will he be fit to play?

Alexandre Lacazette seemed to land in a way that caused him to hurt his back or shoulder but given Arsenal and Mikel Arteta’s latest update, it seems as if they might have been concerned about a head injury.
“We have to follow the protocols, that we have to test him and make an x-ray,” Arteta told reporters ahead of Arsenal’s game against Wolves on Tuesday evening. “He was completely fine after the game, he was fine yesterday and he has slept well. I’m expecting him to be available.”
