Arsenal’s head of sports medicine, Dr Zafar Iqbal, is preparing to leave the club. This development marks a change in the Gunners’ behind-the-scenes staff.
Dr Iqbal has been a part of the Gunners’ medical team for two years, overseeing their sports medicine operations during this period. His departure will conclude his tenure with the Premier League club.
His exit will open a vacancy in a key backroom role that is crucial for player welfare and rehabilitation at the club. Arsenal will now look to appoint a successor to Dr Iqbal.
