Declan Rice returns to Arsenal training as Cristian Mosquera and Bruno Guimaraes miss session

Declan Rice took part in Arsenal training on the day Sky Sports cameras were granted access to an open session, while Cristian Mosquera and Bruno Guimaraes were not involved.

Sky Sports reporter Sam Blitz reported that Mosquera was absent after being forced to leave Arsenal’s match against Aston Villa with a muscle injury. No further details about the extent of the injury were provided.

Rice’s participation was the main positive development from the session. The England international trained with the group as Arsenal prepared for their next fixture, although the report did not indicate whether his involvement represented a full return to normal team training or provide any further update on his condition.

Mosquera’s absence followed his early departure against Aston Villa. The defender’s muscle problem was the stated reason for him missing the session, leaving his availability for Arsenal’s next match unclear. There was no additional information on when he might return.

Bruno Guimaraes was also unavailable for the open training session. The report did not give a reason for the midfielder’s absence.

Jurrien Timber was present on the pitch but continued to work individually rather than taking part in the main group session. His involvement therefore differed from Rice’s, with Timber following his own programme during the workout.

The session was opened to Sky Sports cameras, allowing the broadcaster to report on the players involved and those missing. Blitz’s update highlighted the contrasting situations within the Arsenal squad, with Rice training alongside the team, Timber working separately, and Mosquera and Guimaraes absent.

Arsenal’s session provided the latest available indication of player involvement following the match against Aston Villa. Mosquera’s absence was directly linked to the muscle injury that caused him to leave that game, while no explanation was given for Guimaraes’ non-participation.

The report did not include any further team news, injury timelines or confirmation of which players would be selected for Arsenal’s next match. It established only that Rice trained, Timber worked individually on the pitch, and Mosquera and Guimaraes were not present for the session viewed by Sky Sports.

The update was published alongside coverage available through All Football’s PC website, which offers full news, comments, match details and statistics.
