Arteta banned for Arsenal’s trip to Aston Villa

Arsenal boss, Mikel Arteta will miss the game against Aston Villa in the Premier League on Saturday.

This comes after the Spaniard picked up a yellow card for celebrating the Gunners’ winning goal against Luton Town on Tuesday.

This is Arteta's third card of the season, triggering a one-match ban.

This rule was introduced at the start of this season.

Declan Rice headed in a 97th-minute winner, triggering wild celebrations among the players, staff and fans at the stadium, as Arsenal went five points clear at the top.

Speaking after the game, Arteta told beIN Sports: “I could not be seated in my seat.

“It was pure emotion. If that’s a yellow… that’s a yellow.”
