Hincapie’s situation is the most pressing for Arsenal, with Mikel Arteta having already had to deal with several physical problems within his defense this season. Losing a player with Hincapie’s tactical versatility would be a major setback for the north London club. The 24-year-old has established himself as a vital part of Arsenal’s defense since his high-profile move to the Premier League. His ability to play both at left-back and in central defense has made him an invaluable asset during the current season.
Arsenal have already seen three of their players sent home after their England squad – Declan Rice, Bukayo Saka and Noni Madueke – while Gabriel Magalhaes and William Saliba have had to withdraw from the Brazil and France squads respectively.
