The 2015 Africa Cup of Nations Most Valuable Player failed to recover from the virus infection.

Atsu missed the 3-1 Europa League win over Swiss side Young Boys last Thursday and Sunday’s match at Arsenal.

The on-loan from Chelsea player is yet to replicate the performance that made him a gem at the AFCON.
