Brazil manager Carlo Ancelotti says Gabriel will be assessed on Sunday after the Arsenal defender suffered a groin injury in a friendly win over Senegal in London.<\/b><\/p>\n

The 27-year-old pulled up off the ball just before the hour mark and received treatment to his right thigh before being substituted.<\/p>\n

Gabriel has formed a key part of the Arsenal defence as they top the Premier League table, having conceded just five goals in 11 league games.<\/p>\n

The Gunners face North London rivals Tottenham on 23 November before welcoming Bayern Munich in the Champions League the following Wednesday.<\/p>\n

“Bad? I don’t know. He had an injury in his adductor,” said Ancelotti. “The medical staff has to check tomorrow.<\/p>\n

“We are really sorry for this, really disappointed. When a player has an injury, you hope they can recover well and soon.”<\/p>\n

Brazil beat Senegal 2-0 at Arsenal’s Emirates Stadium through goals from Chelsea’s teenage winger Estevao and Manchester United midfielder Casemiro. <\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Italy boss Gennaro Gattuso says Arsenal defender Riccardo Calafiori has left the international camp. <\/p>\n

He did not play in Italy’s World Cup qualifying win over Moldova on Thursday, having been following an individual training programme for load management.<\/p>\n

“We tried Calafiori, he had a few issues,” Gattuso told Sky Sports Italia, external<\/span><\/a> before Italy’s match against Norway on Sunday. <\/p>\n

“I thank him for his commitment. He stayed here for a week, he could have played perhaps, but it wouldn’t have been fair to him or Arsenal.”<\/p>\n

A source told BBC Sport that Calafiori has not returned to Arsenal for any treatment. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
