Arsenal midfielder Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain will be out for up to four weeks due to a hamstring injury, the English Premier League manager Arsene Wenger confirmed on Friday.
The sideline will also force Oxlade-Chamberlain, who recently returned to the Arsenal team, to miss two upcoming England games, reports Xinhua.
The 21-year-old midfielder pulled up with the injury during Arsenal's 2-1 win over Manchester United in the FA Cup on Monday.
England play an European Championship qualifier against Lithuania on March 27 and a friendly with Italy in Turin four days later.
Wenger says Jack Wilshere will miss a few more weeks while he recovers from minor ankle surgery.
Arsenal play West Ham United FC in the Premier League on Saturday.
