Impact Hincapie suffered a thigh injury during the clash against Liverpool last week and could be involved in Saturday's clash against Nottingham Forest, depending on the late fitness test the players will undergo after Friday's final training session. Hincapie is the closest of the injured players to being able to return and will likely play a significant role once fully fit for the Gunners, as he has been an undisputed starter for months given the injuries in the backline as well.

Set for scans Hincapie is set to undergo scans on his thigh after fears of an injury, according to Ryan Taylor of Football London.

Impact Hincapie would be forced off Thursday and is now set to undergo some testing and scans to determine the extent of his injury. It has already been confirmed as a thigh injury, feeling tightness after a sprint and already playing the match with a wrap on his leg. This leaves his status up in the air as they approach their next league match on Jan. 17 against Nottingham Forest, likely to miss their Jan. 11 FA Cup match as he works on his recovery, with Myles Lewis-Skelly as his likely replacement at left-back.

Arsenal player ratings vs Liverpool: Viktor Gyokeres goes AWOL as abject Gunners fail to take advantage of title rivals' slip-ups

Forced off Thursday Hincapie left the field due to an apparent injury during Thursday's meeting with Liverpool.

Impact Hincapie has been active over the last few games as a left-back due to the absence of Riccardo Calafiori (undisclosed), but the Ecuadorian could now be dealing with an issue as well after leaving in pain against Liverpool. Myles Lewis-Skelly took his place after that incident and should be the main alternative if both Hincapie and Calafiori fail to recover ahead of the FA Cup visit to Portsmouth.

Starting vs. Brighton Hincapie (shoulder) is in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against Brighton.

Impact Hincapie didn't play against Crystal Palace in the EFL Cup on Tuesday due to a shoulder injury, but the defender will return to the starting lineup for this clash. Hincapie will solve the lack of depth on the defensive line, as Gabriel (thigh) remains out, and he'll slot in his regular center-back role alongside William Saliba.

'Matter of days' - Arsenal set for big injury boost as Mikel Arteta reveals imminent Kai Havertz return

Dealing with shoulder injury Hincapie was out for Tuesday's EFL Cup win due to an injured shoulder suffered in the win against Everton, reports football.london.

Impact There had been a rumor floating around Hincapie ahead of Tuesday's match and then he completely missed the game. It's not believed to be serious, but it still is a worry given that Gabriel is nearing a return. Hincapie will have a few days of rest available to him ahead of Saturday's match against Brighton. In his absence, Riccardo Calafiori moved to center-back against Crystal Palace.

Named to bench Hincapie (groin) is on the bench for Tuesday's match against Atletico Madrid.

Impact Hincapie was expected to return Tuesday and has made his way onto the team sheet, with the defender fit for a bench role. He remains a depth role being William Saliba and Gabriel even when fit, likely to see most of his minutes in cup play or when injuires occur.

Available against Atleti Hincapie (groin) is available for Tuesday's clash with Atleti, according to manager Mikel Arteta. "He will be available. I think [the Fulham] game came a bit too early for him, so...

Impact Hincapie is available for Tuesday's clash, supposedly, though Arteta said the same thing before Saturday's match with Fulham and he missed that one. Hincapie likely won't be shoved straight back into the starting XI when fit, but should be a valuable option moving forward. He is most comfortable at left-back, though he can fill in at center-back when needed as well.

OCTOBER 20, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Should be good to go Hincapie (groin) should be available for Saturday's clash against Fulham, coach Mikel Arteta said in the press conference, according to Simon Collings from The Standard.

Impact Hincapie resumed team training this week after recovering from a groin injury and should be good to go for Saturday's clash against the Cottagers. This is good news for the Gunners since the newcomer will be able to help the team both in central defense or at left-back when needed.

OCTOBER 17, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Trains with team Thursday Hincapie (groin) trained with the team on Thursday, according to Sam Blitz from Sky Sports Football.

Impact Hincapie missed the last four games due to a groin injury but appears to have recovered after training with the team again on Thursday. This is good news for the Gunners as the Ecuadorian provides a valuable option in the backline at either center-back or left-back if called upon by coach Mikel Arteta.

Impact Hincapie has been unable to get back with the team this week and will miss yet another match, sidelined to face West Ham on Saturday and sit out a fourth straight game. This is rough for the defender, who only made one appearance with his new club before the injury. He will now look to be an option when facing Fulham on Oct. 18 after the break, likely to see a rotational role once fit.

OCTOBER 3, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Still out Wednesday Hincapie (groin) is out for Wednesday's clash with Olympiacos, per manager Mikel Arteta. "Hincapie and Noni are still out, so no news, the rest is all good."

Impact Hincapie is out for Wednesday's match, and is likely going to be out until after the international break with just one more match after Wednesday. The defender has a bit of a groin issue, though it's not considering overly serious at the moment. He's likely to be a depth option across the backline when fit.

Groin injury confirmed Hincapie suffered a groin injury and is questionable for Sunday's match against Newcastle, according to manager Mikel Arteta, per Simon Collings of The Standard.

Impact Hincapie was absent from the team sheet for Sunday's game and has now been confirmed to have suffered an injury, with the defender picking up a groin issue. The good news is it has been deemed minor, likely leaving a return not far. He will then hope to be an option when facing Newcastle on Sunday, seeing a decent amount of time to recover.

Left out of squad Hincapie (undisclosed) didn't make the squad for Sunday's 1-1 draw against Manchester City, coach Mikel Arteta said in a press conference, according to Football London. "Piero as w...

Impact Hincapie missed Sunday's draw against the Citizens due to undisclosed reasons. The new Arsenal defender has played only one minute in the Champions League game against Athletic since his arrival at the club, and the nature of his absence remains to be confirmed. That said, it seems that he needs time to adapt to the Premier League and won't be more than a rotational player for the near future.
