Andrei Arshavin will have to wait at least one more game for his Arsenal debut as he is ineligible for Arsenal’s FA Cup fourth round encounter with Championship outfit Cardiff City on 16 February. The first match was drawn at Cardiff, and now the replay match will take place at the Emirates Stadium of Arsenal. If the replay match also ends up in a draw, then extra time and penalty shootout will be used to break the tie.
Arshavin joined the North London club during January transfer window for a club record £16.5 million deal. As he was not registered when Arsenal took on Cardiff in the first match, Arshavin will not be able to part of Arsenal squad for this match. Arshavin was left in the substitute bench during Arsenal’s recent draw against Tottenham Hotspur on the road. Now, let us see for how long Andrei Arshavin will have to wait for his Arsenal debut.
