Arsenal ignites North London with explosive news on November 17, 2025. Riccardo Calafiori completes his full recovery and declares himself 100% fit for the seismic Premier League derby against Tottenham Hotspur.
Arsenal’s medical team have run final checks over the last 24 hours and doctors found zero structural damage. They rule the issue as simple workload overload after a relentless schedule.
The 23-year-old leaves Italy’s camp early as precaution. Coach Gennaro Gattuso refuses to risk him in World Cup qualifiers. Calafiori flies straight back to London Colney and staff clears him instantly upon arrival.
Mikel Arteta receives the ultimate pre-derby gift. Calafiori started every single Premier League game this season before the break. He forms a formidable partnership with William Saliba. His ball-playing ability and aggressive duels terrify opponents.
The timing proves perfect yet cruel. Gabriel Magalhaes just picked up a thigh problem on Brazil duty. Tests continue, but doubt surrounds the Brazilian’s availability. Calafiori’s return suddenly becomes mission-critical for defensive stability.
